Cool Automatic Forum

Has anyone suggested possibly having a forum for just the automatic owners? The vast majority of the information in the forum applies to the manual transmission, bet there are things that would be of particular interest to the auto folks. It would also prevent some of the auto bashing.

I second that suggestion. I'm reluctant to ask questions pertaining to the AT model, anticipating sarcastic, hostile replies, demanding AT owners to justify their choice. GIve us our own little "ghetto" where we can exchange ideas and information relatively unmolested

sounds like a good idea, i wonder how many auto 8 owners boughts autos only because they didn't know how to drive a stick, i personally refuse to ever drive an auto again, but i respect your decisions

It looks like most of your wishes have come true. The automatic owners are starting to come out. Do some searches and you will see.

I can drive a 6 speed, it is the mere laziness that I don't.

Bring it on.......... us A/T owners have needs too:D So far, 225 miles and loving every one of them.. I do wish we had a bigger gas tank. With the mediocre mph i seem to be getting, going to the pump is not my idea of fun. I personally think my power output is enough for me. Can't wait to spend my $500. Mazda gift!

MyRX8 (or anyone else who has 16" wheels), all of us who have to deal with the white stuff would be very greatful if you could meet with someone who has a GT (high power) and try your 16's to see if they fit? We are dying to find 16's that will fit over the larger brakes of the GT's. The 16" steel don't fit but it would be great if we could find alloys that have the proper offset. Winter is fast approaching and we are running out of options.

Cheers,
