i just bought an 07 GT rx-8 AT, why bother with the hassle of manual, rip me all you want, i can drive a stick fine, my old honda was stick but it was a pain in the *** in traffic. I honestly LOVE sportronic shifting but only on the paddles, using the stick is slow, paddles have a very fast response, faster than i could ever possibly shift with a clutch. So drive your AT's using paddle shifters, fun and easy to throw into AT once your just cruisin down the hwy or entering traffic.

After reading all these posts,,, I have to agree,,, this thread is useless.

and you shouldn't own an RX-8 if the only oil you have for the car is at the dealership!

Fail for not knowing how to spell Felix Wankel's name. You are now banished to the Temple of Vtec.
