Buy the 03 6MT. You'll thank me later. Not that the auto is bad but the stick is more fun. I also think you will like the silver more than the black. (Keeping it clean is way hard)

with the right amount of money, anything can be fast

rick was known as the n/a beast...and it was a 5at

now he's vortech'd...i dont think theres any need to say that its even faster now lol

its all you man...ask yourself what will be more practical for your purposes

i chose the 5at cause its convenient in traffic but i can always switch it over to manumatic to have a lil fun

although manumatic will never be as fun as a real stick...its good enough for my purposes

Depends what you mean by fast. From the looks if it you might want to do more research about the differences between 5AT and 6MT before making your purchase, just to be sure you're buying what fits what you're looking for.

I have a '03 black 5AT and i love it. When i want to have some fun i just put it in manual mode, i like this set up alot more because if i want to eat while driving or just relax i can throw it in drive and kick it.

I would say mine is pretty fast i just hit 13.8 with a a couple mods. Last weekend i was at the track and there were 3 6speed 350z's out there and all of them had more mods than i do and couldnt even get out of the 14's. Then again they might of had no idea how to drive.

The 6spd is going to be alot more fun to drive, but i guess you are going to sacrifice "daily driving" if you will for the sportier manual transmission.

I guess it just depends on what you like to do. Its your car "whatever floats your boat"

6mt without a doubt. A lot more fun to drive, except in commute traffic.

Yea...here's a good one! How fast do you want to go?

If your going FI - you WANT the AT - traction heaven on the take off's and perfect shifts that out speed the human error every time!

If your going to drift - then you NEED an MT.

REAL MEN POWER SHIFT THEIR MT's IN HOPES OF MATCHING AN AT'S INHERENT SPEED!!

It's not that hard to realize that most every professional race car is an AT...I mean come on guys - like they wouldn't put in an MT if it would give them an edge in the 1/4 mile.

And you all think the MT is king??? Why???
