Ok, so I just have to mention this.
1)Both cars, 6AT and 6MT are fast and fun as hell.
2)It is widely known FACT not OPINION, that Auto's cannot handle as much torque as a manual. With that said, these Auto's are built like a German tank and can take whatever you dish out.
3) With all MODS the SAME including Driver, Auto's are faster. HOW? WHY? The driver only counts when the other driver is also a manual and he sucks. NO driver can keep up with and 6AT because the computer is better, faster, and always gets it right. PERIOD.
4) Many people forget that even if the driver can shift with the Auto (and many can) the manual lowers boost pressure in between every shift. The AUTO does not and as soon as there is a shift you can feel the power is instantly there. The car and driver, edmunds testers are expert shifters but the autos all came out a tenth of a second quicker.
5) I have an Auto, am happy with it but there I times I have to put it in DS because of the slow pokes in town, it sometimes makes me want a 6MT. Hopes this helps. SEE #1.
