I really think the reason I want to get is a stick because it seems like that is what im supposed to do when you have a camaro. I might have got one already but like torque is good said they are really hard to find. When i have found them they were pretty beat up like (E-Brake not working, exhaust failing off) so i had to pass. Maybe im to young to appreciate the stick but Im really starting to lean toward a auto.

 

Stick is a young person thing, the real question is how do you drive? If its like your on a track 24 7 then get a stick and learn if you dont and need hands for other things, texting, talking and eating then get an auto.

 

you shouldnt be texting or eating behind the wheel of any car; i hate that crap

you can get better fuel economy in a manual, so if you ever want to DD this car, you can pull off some better MPGs

 

lol Alajoe i laughed when i saw that because it reminds me of when i taught my girlfriend to drive one hahaha

 

i personally like driving my stick, it feels like im more driving the car and having fun with it instead of just steering pretty much, i love stick IMO

 

my self i like the stick shift b/c unlike the automatic then u shift in to gear its there unlike the automatic

 

In england most people have manual cars. I drive a manual van in London everyday and I wish it was auto. My camaro and every American car I`ve owned has been auto and I plan to keep it that way I love em.

 

All boils down to personal opinion and feel. I keep the auto for trucks, jeeps, and vans. I personally love driving manual not only my camaro but any car. Similar to what Davescamaro93 said I feel more in control of the car, when you need to downshift you can, upshift you can, this can be really fun on curvy roads, and I feel a safety when having to slowdown quickly because I'm not just relying on my brakes (can be a life saver in snowy/rainy situations) I also like the fact that if you need to there is always the option to jump start.

Both of our 'maros are auto and its what I personally prefer. My husband had a 86 manual camaro years ago and I never could leave the yard in it. It stalled every darn time. Now when we were first dating a friend of mine taught me to drive my husbands car. He had a ford escort and at the time it was brand new, I think a 91/92 or so. Anyway, it told you when to shift which I found funny but anyway, I learned it in an hour. I guess its just the difference in cars.

When we first married we had an S10 that was manual and had it about 3 years I think. We traded it for an auto. It was too hard to eat and drive!
