212 hp, 6 speed

this may be old news. but I was flipping the mazda booklet I got from the portland auto show and the 2006 rx8 automatic will have 212 hp (mine is 197) with 6 speed AT (mine is 4). but wait I'm the only one in the NW forum who drive automatic , right?

that would be cool if that were tru PSU15582....I have heard it's still 4 port and I drive an automatic too living in Olympia,wa but still doesn't make you alone. When you go on the mazdausa site to build one it still says 4 for sport automatic. If it is true on the other part that it is 6 then I might jump up and upgrade to one.
