YoungStanger said:You forgot Road Head in your multi-task options. I wasn't saying unregistered drivers were the apart of the choice, just that there's a numerous amount of unregistered drivers to add to the registered drivers giving you an idea of how many people. So good comprehension there friend

Big-Foot said:Not slipping at all.. Sure - if you POP the clutch at an idle - it will buck and take-off or it will stall.
Cold / Hot / Warm - Slowly letting the clutch out at an idle will get the car rolling and with the TCS off I can punch it and light up both rear hydes..
I don't think it would do that if the clutch were slipping..
When you get yours - check it out.. It's no joke...
GTJade said:There is only one thing I hate about my auto - having to defend my choice of it to simple-minded types who say stupid crap like some of the things I've read above. Bottom line-get what you want. A manual is fun, but wholly impractical for me. I owned a manual previously and vowed not to get another because of my commute. I paid extra for an auto transmission because it is what I wanted. Also, it's fun to romp on whilst touching up my mascara!
If your only reason for not getting a manual is your comfort level - you'll get over that. Get what you want. Just be prepared to deal with idiotic responses if your choice is an auto.

Try having a V6 Auto! LOL!
I usually hit one or two car shows every weekend... My gosh the first couple of shows i came home so depressed.. All day long... "oh, it's only a V6..." and "Geez... it's an automatic..." LOL! Eventually my skin thickened up... and I've learned to tune those people out (or some times I do try to enlighten them... being a V6 Apologist! LOL!!! ) Now I go and hang out and have a blast just meeting and talking to people...... And once in a while I do get someone to see the light... that the new V6 is not that horrible rental V6 from the 80s... and the new 5R55S is a fantastic transmission.... LOL!
GTJade said:Well, you have the right attitude. What I'm trying to figure out is the "men" who assert one is less than a man if he has an auto. As a woman, that is the stupidest thing I've ever heard. Maybe a "man" who makes such an assertion is less than confident in his manhood and makes up for it by gear banging...as well as projecting his insecurity on others. Anyway, I think most women like having their driver's hands free to attend to more important things...them!
