Yeah sort of....it just depends on what upgrades you have done to your auto. Those can rip up like crazy if they're built

I like my 6spd. STICK if only i had a real clutch backing it up. You get a short throw shifter and a south bend clutch in that thing you got one hell of a tranny.

Don't get me wrong, I love my manuals, but it's nice to have a break every once in a while driving one of my autos. Even then I grab for the shifter for a while till I get used to it.

I'm sure everyone in the world is the same way. Whenever I drive someone else's car manual or auto, i'm always reaching up around the steering wheel. Instead the shifter might be floor mounted or whatever...
