viagra_cressida Regular Location: Balranald Registered: May 2002	Manual VS Auto? Wed, 04 September 2002 08:48 I would love to see a test in a magazine between a bog stock standard ... lets say Camry Auto vs a bog stock standard Camry Manual with a range of drivers...skilled and not skilled. I believe overall the people would get better times in drag/ overtaking/ lap times etc in the auto. I HATE people that say manuals are the only way to go and have no idea how to drive them. I got a lift home with a friend the other day (I locked my keys in my car ) and he goes on about manuals are the only way to go. There is a big hill near my place and I felt like getting out and walking because we went up it so slow. 20km/h lugging along in 3rd gear! After leaving it in 4th till about 35km/h!! This is a hill I go up in my AUTO Commodore easily at 90-100km/h...........but he still thinks manuals are fastest. Another example is my friend with an AUTO Silvia. He is right into racing people and almost never loses a race against more powerful cars just because it's hard to miss a gear in an auto and everyone has the excuse that "I missed a gear".....well if you can't drive a manual get an auto!!!!!!!
