thats why you see a lot of problems related to manuals trans and not autos.


I believe I would fall into this category if I went with the manual. I love how the auto has the rev matched feature to prevent problems.

You cant go wrong with either the auto or manual version. I'm confident that toyota and subaru have made certain that the auto is an awesome car.

With the "news" that came out today about numbers I have to admit that if I was told this is the last 2013MY the dealership was getting in and it was everything I wanted but Automatic instead of Manual I'd be tempted. I'd prefer a Manual instead of an Automatic but... I dunno, something about this car. I just want one. :P

Has there been any verification about whether the AT will allow drivers to hold gears at the rev limiter? Last thing I remember reading was a year ago and was implying that up shifts were forced.
