thats what im thinking.. but i'd have to wait

 

I would rather wait and get what I want than settle. I waited for my MR sport MT and I love it

 

is manual THAT good? i have a feeling you will say yes lol

 

Well you gotta understand that a certain percent of the power from the engine is loss through the driveline. Manual trans are usually able to put a higher percentage of the availabe power to use. I test drove the auto before i picked up my manual and the auto just feels like its making alot of noise and not going anywhere IMHO. Maybe its the tactile feedback your getting from actually shifting yourself but the manual feels alot better. The one thing i kinda dont like about it is the clutch delay valve. It slows down engagement for smooth shifts

 

but still quicker than the auto? i goota say that the mazda 2 was one of the easiest shifters ive ever worked... that engine screams tho and loves to be over 4k rpms... feels like your in racecar but really only going 40 or 50 haha

 

Yeah its faster than the auto. The auto guys will preach and preach about the paddle shifters ( which is fine and all) but if you really wanna have fun and drive quick every once and a while you need a manual.

 

get an oddysey or pilot, and get a 08++ Si sedan!

k20, 4 door, still lots of fun. you can find used si's for a decent price with low km's if you hunt around!

 

This man speaks the Truth. The manual is SOOOOO worth waiting for. I waited 2 months for my manual transmission Sport.

 

Why not sell it yourself than deal with the dealerships?

 

GET A MANUAL TRANS FIT SPORT! It will feel amazing. I have driven on both paddles and manual. Manual still feels 100times better. Just get the manual. Or have you already bought the car?
