AT or MT, it doesn't matter. Everyone gets what they want for whatever reason. A manual car doesn't make you a man, if it does, then that's sad.

Ryan's friend has an M3 and it is SMG (AT) and it will pretty much beat anything, including a MT rx8 .

Driving MT in traffic is kinda annoying. Its more for those who like to be in complete control of the car. Also some go AT because they drive a lot and commute places. Either way it doesnt really matter its not like the 8 is a "fast" car. And I think SMG is a bit diff then a normal AT car.

Plus with all the canyon runs and beach cruises and crap I know there is gonna be a lot of rock chips and what not, so I dont wanna trash a Authentic Front. Maybe When I do get money Ill get an Authentic for show purposes and use the Replica on canyons/beach cruises/ etc.
thats why i said potential learn to read of course you need to datalog and see weather or not you will need em i agree with flashwing

yepp and buddy shut up you say you drive mt but you were pretty pitiful at it when you showed to dozers house, i drive an at sadly but i could drive the 8 mt better than you so stfu, that being said the 8 and my fc are the easiest manual cars ive ever driven but thats cause i leaned in old cars with hard clutches, i remember my jetta damn **** had a hard clutch pedal not all smooth like the 8s or my fc that said to each their own lol

I think 500$ is a good price considering it looks new, no dents/scratches.
