It really all depends on what you are into, Autos are of couse easier for traffic but just not as fun. I've had my stick as my daily driver for about 1.5 years now and there as only be one time i regret having it. That was in 30 min of traffic with 3 foot adavnces every min.

currently i have a 93' FD with a manuel but everyone around me has an auto. I took their car out sometimes and I've got to say, its pretty relaxing to know I dont have to like shift up and down at every corner. hehe, manuel kinda became a lot easier when first started but i just dont wanna f*ck it up by messing up my tranny.

Also i heard if you dont shift at the right time the car stalls? Never really happened to me, can anyone explain this?
