Auto is good for stop and go traffic. But it gets mad boring on longrides and nice straight highways. A stick is more 'sporty'.

If I buy a manual car, it probably won't be a dinky Civic.

i wanted a stick but some people told me that u get sick of it so i got auto and i regreat it cuz its sooooo slow and boring.....

[Master J]

what the hell who told u u'd get sick of stick?...shouldn't it be the other way around

<--auto

[civicvtec1ps]

def stick...
i had auto. it sucked . and hated everyday

auto.. which at first i regretted,

but when i think about it, my car is really heavy with 18's, huge box, amp, etc... im not really looking to race it anyway

the only downside i see is that you loose a bit of speed.. 1/4 mile times are about a second longer

but big deal, im a lazy ass.. and this makes my life easier... so i dunno

if i were to get a sporty car in the future, id probably go with a sequential manual if i had the opportunity

Manual here.

get sick of stick? you gotta be kidding. my service loaner car was an auto. i had it for a day. got bored of it and longed for my manual after 1/2hr of driving.
