Not necessarily. The RS7 gets away with an 8 speed auto and it works pretty damn well.

From what I can tell, you're one of the few who can make that claim.

I have had 1 automatic out of all my cars and it felt so off. My wife even enjoys taking my car out because of the 6 spd. she wants to get into another manual someday. Maybe a vw cabriolet.

Heh.

My first car was a '76 Toyota Corona yellow wagon 5 speed. Drove that until I got a ' 91 VW Jetta 5 speed. Retired that for a `03 Honda Civic coupe 5 speed. Lastly, I upgraded to a '07 Honda Accord 5 speed.

Loved driving manuals. My wife was the same too.

Now that I have the S, there's no transmission, and honestly I can say I don't miss the manual anymore.

DD is auto. Garage queen is manual.

Been driving manual for the last 13 years here pretty much since I got my license. Don't mind it at all even in the ridiculous SoCal traffic.

MANUAL is AWESOME!

My current car is a black 1999 Camaro SS: 600hp with 6 speed (bought brand new)

Previous cars:
1995 Cobra red 5 speed
1998 Cobra white 5 speed purchased new
1998 Cobra black 5 speed purchased new
2000 WS6 RAM AIR Trans AM navy blue metallic 6 speed

Auto trans is faster for drag racing, but manual is MUCH MUCH more fun!
