Even with the A8 shudder, Automatic. I drove stick my whole life, but now that I am getting older I just don't want to shift anymore. I drive I75 every day and with the traffic a stick gets old very very quickly. Plus the automatics are faster.

We got lazy when people started getting the 2SS package so they can toast their butt when it gets a little chilly out.

Auto... unless I was living far out in the country somewhere with absolute zero traffic. Constant shifting in traffic drives me nuts... and puts a lot wear and tear on the clutch.

M6 for fun
A10 because wife needs to drive it too (she loves it ).

I have the A8 but, I wouldn't get it, knowing what I know now.
The civic takes care of the manual itch

Since the auto is so smooth I’ll drive only auto. DSG, DCT, and the 8 speed auto from the Camaro.

One good thing if you’re a manual lover, there’s tons of them for sale used with no miles. If you look at new car buying sites you will see way more automatics than manuals for sale in new (performance models) it’s the exact opposite in the used car market which tells me people buy the manual hate it and get the automatic.
