If you consider a true 0-60 yeah. But you also have to consider the gearing is different between the two, with taller gears in the AT.

I am sorry to bring this 2 months old post up ,, but I wanted to share my opinion.
If you enjoy this car in AT,it is nothing wrong with it.

On the other hand,I personally prefer "manual" in sport car like this. I like to downshift and hear the gear rev-ing sound when I turn corners. Driving in traffic, or up hill is pain, but I still like the vibration of the clutch and it make me feel the car is alive. Also, my ultimate goal is to drift, so driving a manual car is a must, and I will drive manual car from now on. (except getting a suv after having kids.)

This is just my opinion.

Agree, this car begs for that third peddal. But the last time I spoke on this, I was labled a troll. 1.2 seconds is a lot in car time. IMO this car shouldnt even come with as n automatic. The full package is the stick on this kind of car. Labled troll or whatever...this car is just more fun in manual form.

Oh for crying out loud. Some of us worked hard to quell this shit storm thread and it get's resurrected to just to say the same shit all over again.

new2subaru · 12-28-2015, 11:23 AM

I think it's funny how people try and convince me that I made a mistake buying an automatic.

I have my reasons and don't have a single regret. And, yes, I drove a manual first.

Now, I have to get around to ordering that 4.88.

YamahaR86 · 12-28-2015, 11:45 AM

1.2 seconds!? Thats a giant difference.
