do you own a AT or MT?
im still debating whether to get an AT or MT rx8 :uhh:
if anyone wants to give me their opinon/help me choose, hit me up on AIM brrianx i seriously cant choose :banghead: can you add the pros and cons of your transmission? that would help thanks :) |
oh crap, I see a storm of bash the ATs coming.......
|
manual transmission is the only way to go
|
MT. I see absolutely no reason to buy an RX-8 in AT.
|
once upon a time i was going to get the 8 in AT, but I bought a MT because it was fully loaded. I couldn't drive my own car for 3 days, but once I finally took time to learn, I was SO glad I didn't get a AT. When people see your car and you tell them you have a AT, they will make fun of you. Just ask tajabaho :)

Had only ATs before and was a little afraid of going MT, still got my RX-8 MT and would not have considered AT. No offense to AT owners... whatever rocks your boat :) |
lol
ive never driven a MT car and no one i know has one but ive researched a whole lot about how to drive a MT/how it works hopefully i can get an rx8, maybe next year AT=easier, but. a sports car w/ AT?! MT=redline?!, but im not sure if i know how and traffic? BOB SAGETT :banghead: |

You don't want any sort of RX8 as your first car.

Ordered the car with the 6spd auto, we don't race so the minor speed difference is of no concern. Wouldn't trade it for anything.
|
Don't be a girly man!! Just kidding the auto comes in a 6 port now I do believe.

^^ so true. Good point
|
The At is 215 hp and the MT is 232 "Don't hold me to those numbers, but I think it's right" It is the very same engine with the extra hp being developed with the higher revs, The At redlines at 7,500 and the MT redlines at 9,500

Edit: Damn, someone already said it. |
I've always owned manual transmission cars... but see no reason for bashing somebody that does'nt.. IMO I just coul'nt do it with this particular car. way to fun to drive with a 6 speed..
|
If you want to make friends on here.. Get a MT.
I myself have an AT and love it.. Haha. I don't need friends dammit! I have my 8! Plus, the AT is faster than the MT.. That's just what I think though.. Go figure. ;) |
MT is awesome, the way to go.
Reasons: - Higher Red Line - Better Gearing - More Horsepower - It has 3 pedals! - It builds muscle in your left leg - 75%, if not more, drive automatic in America - Keeps your wife from driving your car :) |
He's 15, he doesn't have a wife.
|
If you don't want to get the 'AT buyers remorse ' syndrome - then get the MT .
Oh - and you never ever ever hear anyone on here say " I wish I bought the AT instead of the MT " |
Again, if you ask this, you have no business owning a sports car in the first place.
