You have one sentence to defend yourself for driving an automatic transmission car

>Protip; you can't
>>

I know you are 12 but if you go into a high end car dealership, most have triptronic or whatever they call it and are otherwise auto. Try sitting in 3 hours of traffic in a Porsche with a stick. Not fucking awesome.

They aren't.

Benz, BMW, Audi, Lexus, Tesla, etc.

It's called launch control, and unless you're in a barely-street legal sports car, you're not about to take 3 seconds off your 0-100 just by shifting a bit higher than a good CVT and high stall torque converter can.
Torque and horsepower = power.

That being said.. I am enjoying the back and forth on this thread. haha.

WHO GIVES A FUQ?!

>>673114178
Easier to Operate – Because the transmission takes care of shifting between gears in order to match acceleration and deceleration needs, drivers don’t have to learn how to use a clutch, when to shift, and the proper timing required for operating a manual transmission effectively. When driving an automatic, the driver must only shift between park, drive, and reverse which is much easier and requires less specific knowledge.

I said high performance, not faggot "sports car".

All F1/2/3's, Touring Cars, V8 Supercars, Nascars, Formula 1000's, and more use Semi-Automatic Transmissions with sequential gearboxes.

When the professional changes gear, the car takes a split second to adjust the engine revs, temps, fuel flow and more so that the gear change is made perfectly.

Not Manual. Also even the Audi R8 that you mentioned uses a stick shift SEMI AUTOMIC TRANSMISSION.

Manuals are fucking gay

Dual clutch is the only thing I would drive that isn't a stick. I grew up with stick so everything auto just feels numb and shitty because they don't shift exactly when I want them to.
DCT and DSG feel fantastic. Super fast shifting, exactly when you want. I'd love to have one.
However in 90% of cases, manual is just more fun. This is an undeniable, all beit subjective, fact. The likes of the BRZ/GT86/Sion FRS is considered to be one of the most fun driver cars you can buy. They're stick shift. This is no coincidence. They are not all out performance machines. They are driver machines. I am not a racer. Shaving a second off my lap time is not a concern. So I will settle for whatever is the most fun possible. Which is stick.

none of those are torque converter automatics. They either use dog clutches or an automated clutch. Your 20 year old Saturn uses a torque converter automatic which is why it's slower, heavier, less efficient and more expensive than a manual.

Here's the deal, dipshit.
Sit in traffic for an hour to to make a half hour trip. 1.5 hrs of driving.

Get a coffee, kill an hour, go home. 1/2 hr driving.

Get home at the same time. less stress. less wear on your car. lower gas use. Less chance of some moron hitting you.

Worked for me.
As and added bonus, I met my wife at a coffee shop while we were both waiting for the idiots to clear off the road.
But hey, waste your life sitting in traffic alone if you wish.

work pays for the work truck so I don't give two shits if it's manual or automatic.

it's a transit connect... not as bad in the snow as you'd think...

but yeah, the best thing going for it is I don't pay for gas or repairs.

I have to say, as someone who owns both a manual and automatic, I am much more aware when driving stick. Because I have to think more while driving, I am forced to pay much more attention to the road when accelerating or stopping. I also enjoy the feeling of control in a manual, as I am able to compensate better to road conditions. Funny, I learned on an automatic, but was forced to learn stick because of budget constraints when I had to buy a new car. Glad I made the switch.

Doesn't really matter. Each have advantages. I've been driving a manual my entire life and I love it, but I see why an automatic is easier for city driving. Manual is for people who enjoy driving and don't just do it monotonously every day.

What, you tell me that for americans automatic is the norm and manual the exception ?
The only person I know with an automatic is my grandma because she can't drive for shit...

Go all accross Europe or asia, most cars are manual.

all im saying is that the whole "being stuck in traffic with a manual is terrible!" is way over blown.

But i can understand now a days people can't keep their eyes off of a lit screen for more than 5 seconds and having to clutch out, shift, clutch in is just too much to ask especially when you're also putting on your face and eating breakfast at the same time. Either way, privately owned cars will become a thing of the past. It'll all come down to driver-less public transportation.

No, they're for people with brains. You can't get an automatic transmission in a car with less than 5 gears now. Higher end cars have upwards of 9 for fuel economy, manuals were always justified in Europe for the fuel economy but it's not the case anymore.

Basically this.

I don't find comfort in constantly holding a long, hard object. I like to focus on driving, rather than focusing on how my outdated vehicle sounds, before I shift. I don't think I'm cool for driving with one hand. I'm not so self-absorbed or insecure enough to make a thread about my preferences, to claim that they are superior.

I bet you drive a huge truck, make it a priority to get wasted every day, and have let down every sexual partner you've ever spent 5 minutes with.

I'm a bit of a control freak.
A manual transmission just gives me more control of the car.
It's that simple.
If you like having your car control your driving, that's fine. Some people just suck at operating mechanical things and I'd prefer they drive an automatic, especially when they're in front of me at a stop light facing uphill.

Most automatics these days have 5 or more gears plus lockup torque converters so there gas mileage is as good if not better than manual. my 2015 Corolla S with a CVT is rated 2 mpg higher than the 6 speed manual model.
