Manuals are fun however if your driving in a lot of traffic it does become quite tedoius (sp?). However, I wouldn't have it any other way. It's all a personal preference.

 

I have the automatic, and don't have any problems with it, of course I upgraded the trans, torque converter, and added a "Commander" lockup controller.

If you don't like when and where it shifts, put an ATS Commander Lockup controller on it, then you have great flexability, and it won't go to redline. I really love the lockup controller.

 

I also have a MT and have absolutely no regrets with it. The only problem is with what dieselram mentioned. Acceleration is pretty much limited to how fast you can shift, so its hard going against someone with an automatic. Then again, if I wanted a vehicle to drag, I would have purchased something else.
