Once Obama becomes president again (I mean IF he does) all I know is that when it comes time to sell the baby, its gonna bring me some MOOLA when every other car is gonna be a 4 cylinder getting 60000 mpg

Lol, that's always a plus. I couldn't risk having a drink spill on me though

Don't get me wrong, the fun factor goes to the stick. But it's fun to drink my coffee and hammer my car.

I know we don't talk politics, but when Romney is elected we will have our own gas and cheaper.

You could say that about almost any modern car feature. The very first automobiles didn't have a steering wheel. Does that mean we have to compete only in cars that are operated with a tiller?

That is total BS! I can drive a stick as good as anybody! In the real world of traffic auto is better.

You won't need to. Money will be obsolete when he's done.

My uncle has a bum left knee that got injured in combat and he will get the ZL1 in auto just for the cool fun of it even though he will not track the car ever. He has a 2008 GTR now with only 4500 miles so the car just sits in the garage and the ZL1 is the only car he said he will trade it in for.

Top speed, its faster....

REAPER SS · 10-19-2012, 09:30 PM

I have had a 2 manual Camaros and 2 auto Camaros. I must say that the stick was fun but I did get tired of shifting. Im putting my SS up for sale and I am leaning toward the Auto ZL1. I plan on this Camaro being my last one and Chevy exceeded my expectation with this auto.
