I think, if I could afford one, that I would go with a manual. I just got done driving my RSX with a stick for 4 years and didn't really mind it at all. Granted we don't have really bad stop and go traffic here but I found it gratafying. But with all that said, I still really enjoy the 55's 7sp now. Especially in sport mode it is always chomping at the bit ready to down shift when called apon. I also like how if driving spirited it will hold the gear while turning so it it ready to go again when you get back on the gas.
I read a review that said something like, overachieving auto...still not a stick and I think that is exactly how I feel. It is by far the best auto I have ever driven and will probably ever drive.
No DSG option? |
