Ahh the loaner. Been driving it for 4 days.
Well my car is in service for some minor issues and I have been driving the loaner since saturday. All i gotta say is automatic and traffic go together. This is the second day of the work day and after a usuall traffic commute i was NOT tired at all. automatic, caddy like suspension (compared to my car)FTW in traffic. Im just glad my workplace is going to be 3 miles away in about 20 days. No more an hour + commute every day. 
BTW i do miss my car.

I have had a 06 loaner since yesterday, This thing is incredibly slow/soft. I feel like im in an SUV because of the seating position. I can't imagine me driving a stock automatic G. I would kill myself within the first week.
I can't wait to get my car back.

BTW this car makes nasty a$$ smoke when standing still. I covered my car in smoke yesterday and i was surprised how easy it was to do a standing still burnout.

I had a 07 loaner not long ago. I actually dislike having the automatic on the 07. The throttle is so sensitive that you are either creeping along or the auto dumps a few gears and rockets ahead. I suppose you get used to it but I was glad to get my 05 6mt back.

I left the car there in valet mode on. I wonder if they even think of test driving my car what their reaction would be seeing the needle bounce off the rev limiter at 4000rpm.
