I love it I couldnt imagine having a 4l60e. Hell the one in my lt1 caprice 9c1 is dying from the little power it puts out, in my camaro it'd be shot! Also driving an automatic I dont feel like I'm driving, moreso the cars driving me and I'm just steering and hitting the gas!

I love mine, would never have a car like it with an automatic. I also have never had any problems out of the tranny either. I don't race, or go to the track so I pretty much hate/don't have a need for automatics.
However my truck is an automatic and it shifts too much. Can't help it though, I just turn the overdrive off until highway driving and it fixes it.
I also am a fan of road course racing, so I like the twisties, not the straight line. Another point for standards in general.

I love it except for the syncros. Ive heard to get the steel shift fork and the upgraded syncros. I have yet to do this but other than that no complaints. I still works fine. Nothing like an m6 on the street. Dragracing et's, well, an auto will keep you more constant if that is what you are after.

Autos are for straight line and thats not all these cars are for in my opinion.
Which is why i swaped from an automatic to manual in my '92 camaro.
Even though my reverse is iffy and the throwout bearing rattles sometimes i love it to DEATH over a god damn boring automatic...

A4= Awsome for the track, very consistent, easier to launch.
T56= More of a challenge,not as consistent, but way more fun.
When I purchased my goat I asked myself(Am I going to drag race this thing more than one time a month? Naaahh, I'll get the t56
) The t56 is waaaay more fun on the street than the a4.
If I wanted to drag race more than driving on the street, I would of got an LS1 F-body with an A4. I will still buy one one of these days and use it for the track and the street once in a while
