I gotta say, two cars with engines running at the same level, with identical modifications, one being auto and one being manual, that if the manual is driven flawlessly then the manual is going to win, assuming both cars can launch without drama. Simply due to more power getting to the ground. Autos are vastly more consistent, and an auto ripping apart a stick car in a drag race is nothing new. Still, there are some really good stick drivers out there.

Dunno ... last I heard, An A/T WS6 Trans Am ranks #1 ( as for fastest LS1's) at the track and it's nearly a full second faster that the fastet M/T. Yeah, I know ... the cars aren't equal ... until then, it's an auto at the top!

I voted for Firebird A4 ... it's so relaxing to drive but can be brutal if I want to be. I just couldn't make a real good case for getting a manual. Besides, who would hold my coffee on my way to work in the morning???

It took you since February of last year to come up with that? LOL!

"No, you're retarded! Naaaaa!"

If you couldn't tell by the poll's question, I was making fun of the other stupid polls like this one. Had no idea it would keep going and going...

If someone could build an manual that could hold up to the power like an auto can, than things might be different. That is your full second difference right there.

So its only really a matter of style. I like the sexy lines on my TA better than a camaro's, but thats not to say i dont always look twice at any camaro i see. Both are rediculously sexy, but the Firebird looks a lil more eye-catching to me, especially since there are fewer of them around me.

Not that i would turn down owning an SS.... SEXY!!!
