My first post.

Bought a 2004 coupe 6 speed 2 weeks ago today.
Love it. Only owned one automatic trans ever in my life. The 6 speed was abit to get used to but Now I think it is fantastic. I used to race a corvette in legal street drags in the early 70s with a lot of custom work on the shifter. The 6 speed was a bit uncertain at first but if you get to know where your shifter is you can move it quite easily and quickly. I am a purist when it comes to a sports car.
If I wasnt so old and mellow I would more agressively assert that putting an automatic in a sports car is akin to putting perfume on a pig. Just doesnt do the trick if you get my meaning.
