    Manual and it was a ***** to find, too! Of course I was really picky about lots of stuff.

          Define what you mean by a "touring" transmission

          Also, who here has a performance car?

            </font>[/QUOTE]Well, v6 is not a sports car, but it's a perfomance coupe. Suspension on harder side, low stance, rwd, wide tire profile on large rims, 200hp/225tq... it's not exactly geo metro or honda civic or any other "regular" cars.

            and touring transmission is automatic transmission... it's when you let computer descide for you, cuz you're just touring around and have no control over gearbox other than the control the computer grants you.

              Auto in my maro, manual in my rx-7. Although I would be happier with the camaro as a manual.

                        I go through GM automatics like they are food.

                        I had 2 4L60's fail in my 94 camaro. I had 3 700R4's fail in my 86 iroc, and I had 2 Th350's fail in my 71 Monte carlo.

                        When I bought my current car, the only stipulation I had was that it had to be a manny tranny.

                            i learned to drive on a manual but in the big city with stop and go driving an automagic is preferred.

                            as for steering an auto, its not too hard to get the auto transmission to do what you want. it doesnt shift fast enough for my liking but i can usually get it to hold the gear i want.
