b&m? I always find it funny when people have to have a manual, manuals tend to be slower in the quarter (unless your a pro driver) have more maintrenance(gotta change the clutch, and supposed to change fluid every so often also) not as strong (of course there are exceptions)

I will go with him a manual is a lot more simple!! I would say if I had to I could rebuild a manual but not a auto. and you have more control of when to shift, and when not too. which my transmission has a hard time deciding. :banghead:
