Is anybody tired of driving with stick??

I've got 2005 IP great condition 5AT G35 with factory navigation. (fully loaded.)
I just wonder if someone who has 6MT and doesn't wanna drive stick shift anymore is interested in trading with 5AT.

If there's anyone, I will post my pics. Thanks.

TO be honest I love driving stick all day long! There's nothing better than controlling your engine the right way

i dont think youll find anyone that is on these boards. most people on tese boards have gone from an 03 AT to an 05-06 6MT...

good luck though, my advice would be, if your car is new, go to the dealership and see how much more its gunna be to trade it, it prob wont be worth it.

sorry i couldnt help

People with autos are always complaining that driving a stick in traffic sucks... Yet, they never drove, and cant even drive a stick... haha..

There is really no differences between an auto and 6mt when driving in traffic... people with auto need to step on the brake, and let go of the brake, and step on the gas... then slam on the brakes and honk the horn. and then cuss and flick people off.

with the 6mt, we rarely use the brakes, and its basically, all automatic... It's really not as bas as u might think it is.. people with 6mt are also calmer people.

but comme onnn guyysss... people with auto can have a free hand duuude... driving with my gf today on the highway with it in 6th i was just laughing to myself. what a bogus excuse to drive auto. extra hand to use for other things....just proves most auto drivers have never even driven stick..they think its shifting 24/7 with hand always on the shifter plenty of time for my hand to wander elsewhere when driving stick

auto drivers, just admit you
a. are too lazy to drive stick
b. think its tiresome in traffic (tear tear)
c. don't know how to drive stick
d. have never even been in a car with stick
e. never even had a member of the opposite sex (or..same...) to use that "other " unoccupied hand
f. use that other hand to play with your little dingy
















heheheh j/p

I'm tired of driving the G's manual... clutch engagement blows, and it's too soft. The throw is too long for a "short shift" as well.
I can't get used to the damn thing that I've had for over 1 fricken year!
All in all, my mr2 is more of a blast to drive.

Bump me too! WHen I first started looking into getting a G (coming from the Euro world vw/audi) I did not even know they put brembos on these cars! HaHa I was like "man the G with the BBK looks sick! That what I will do to mine." My buddy was like "Oh you need an 03-04 then." I was so excited and kinda fell into an 03 mt6 with 6K miles the next week. I was lucky!!!
