I'm surprised someone would enjoy that combo for a dd. Real cars have three pedals,excluding the footrest pedal. A trans brake you will only use on the strip. auto is girls and people who don't know how to drive stick IMO

Autos are for women (who shouldn't be allowed to drive cars or vote anyway) and real men drive t5's with noodle shifters and bad synchro's.

manuals are for people who THINK they CAN drive, and then lose and make excuses "oh i missed a gear" "oh it popped out of 3rd" "oh my syncros are bad"

Wow, this has become an A4 vs. M6 battle. People who use their a4 as a dd and drive in traffic prefer it, but deep inside they wished they bought another car as a dd, got an M6, and kept their T/a newer. On the street, manuals will be faster, (right driver) because you can at least choose what rpms to shift at, and can choose their gear from a roll.

stick lets you go with 4.11s and still get the same mileage as an auto
