Why doesn't the ebay auction match the picture of the car you posted?

That does look like a bad car though...

too bad it's AUTOMATIC. i know, a lot of autos are fast, but why drive a 320 hp car if you can't control it?

because auto trannys are usually more durable than manuals.

are you sure? i'm no techie, but i think it's the other way around cause with a manual all you have to worry about is the clutch, but with an auto once it's gone you would need to get it replaced or rebuild. someone else please chime in.

not having personal exprience, I would still like to say that manuals would be more durable, the auto tranny is a lot more complicated with a lot more parts to break, which would make a manual more durable.
