Look, if u want performance and speed, get the manual. on the other hand, if yer not doing massive mods to yer car, keep the auto. sure, me and my auto will get flogged every time off the line...but crusing down the coast and gettin throo peak hour traffic....i wouldnt have it any other way

why dont some of you auto drivers try upping diff gears, and getting a cam. 3.7's or 3.9's will see you off the line nicely, decent alted/rpd cam should see you doing the flogging.

Anybody volunteer to take me for a ride in their manual falcon? lol. I've got the auto, and I dont see it as being heaps slow off the line, if you manual people say its slow, I'd really love to experience the acceleration of a manual.

I have been driving auto for almost all my life.......it gets boring cause not enough foot work. Manual is fun cause u get to do a lot of repeated things between lights and keeps u concentrated imo. phong =P~

Off the line it doesnt make such a difference but towards the end of first, all throught second and third it just f**k puuuuuuullllllsss.
