don't be a dumbass (i meant "manual"). people like you are the one's who start trouble. you kind of remind me of the thread that's in the off-topic section titled, "damn people are just ignorant". perhaps you can post a picture of yourself there? grow up, okay?

someone's got to give forgive you, go look in the mirror (you can learn how to spell too. didint = didn't). since you have so much time on your hand, go polish/buff the swirl marks/scratches off your blue vic (not a good pic of the side door). maybe then, your stage 2 will be complete (well... maybe not). have a great day buddy!

It's stressful to drive stick like that... so I eventually purchased an automatic. While I miss how much fun it was to drive a manual out on the open road... day-to-day practicality forced me to purchase an automatic.
i learn how to drive in a manual too, have lots of fun, but practicality and the fact that i live in LA where everywhere u go is traffic and i drive a 4dr (btw,how fast can u drive in a 4dr) makes the decision of driving a auto would be great. btw, why argue over that ? whether it's auto or not, doesn't make u gay, manly, have common sense, or shows that u're a sissy. it's just preference.
so guys chill out, who cares whether he tries to disguise the auto as manuaL? btw, where u got that? i'm interested haha

Resale value:
Auto > Manual
When I was selling my car last July which was an 2001 Auto I put it up on AutoTrader. There were about 7 Civic from private sellers selling and 4 of them were manuals with less miles and better condition.
I got like 6 calls during the first 3 days and sold the car on the 5th.
Those manuals are still on autotrader..... the market is tiny for manual Civics so its very hard to sell them. With an auto Civic the market is huge and you can get top dollar for them.
