Right that is what I thought. I don't plan on running slicks because I want it to be more of a street machine. I'm looking at a TKO-600 to replace my T-5. I'm not sure what clutch yet.
It's just my dad thinks I should put in an auto and his justifications are that: I won't overrev, stronger than a manual, and its too hard to shift a car with 500+.
I understand his points all except the last one, he's never driven a 500+ hp car so I don't really count that as a point. I'm not trying get in a fight with my dad, I just want to hear more opinions.
