Don't get a GTS or GT in automatic people. You have a compact sports car, A SPORTS CAR, sure not a Porsche or Ferrari but come on, those people are missing out on all the excitement, acceleration, and control all we manual owners have.

Oh man that sucks... sorry about that, you should have had your choice since it was their fault AND a double extended warranty or something to sweeten the deal.

No need to rub it in! cry Actually before i got the celi I wasn't really into modding and racing so I got auto because it's easier. It was a few months after I got the celi that I got into it and I am kicking myself in the ass now wishing I knew more about it then and got stick... though reading about these misshifts and syncro problems and stuff sure makes me glad I have an auto sometimes! thumbsup

Why in the world do mothers think that having a auto will make you a better driver? IMO it makes you a worse driver because you have to play little attention to what your doing, and what the car is doing.

Your paying more attention to everything that is going on in a standard transmition vehicle. Driving an automatic is negligence.

if you drive that miles that many people do, you'd not pay attention to work it takes to drive there, and would rather just get to the desination...

ie; you'd rather dig with a big hole with a big shovel - while I'd rather just not dig a whole in the first place rofl

some people enjoy driving... and for those who do not enjoy it, there are automatics thumbsup

My first big drive in my celica was from Washington State to the heart of texas, in three days, 2200 miles. I put 300 miles on a week, on average. I drive a lot IMO.
