Clean her up then, nobody likes a dirty car. And I remember when I got my current one, the first thing I did was explore it inside out. I feel the desire to meet some of you guys and girls in real life. RuYi with her car, me with my Bmw, AvAlAnChE1 with his Mustang, Blurred with his car.

And I don't think I would lose you that easy my friend. ^-^

Side note, sorry for dropping off Msn earlier while you searched for some rims for my car. It was never my intention to just carelessly log off, something came up and I had to take care of it..

Lol...Idiot, why would they be unexperienced? >.> It's their way of driving, let them and don't feel better than them because you can shift.

Who are you to call me idiot kido?? When you learn to drive let me know. You cant compare manual to automatic, why 95% of sports cars have manual?? With manual you can get much more from the
]car, for example 2 same cars one has manual and second automatic, let them race. Manual wins 100%
You dont know shit about cars so stop talking kido.


So? Look at Le Mans or all the race cars, they are all paddle/automatic.

Also, manual does NOT win 100% of the time. Automatic is consistent in times, manual is not consistent. Unless, you always have a perfect launch and all perfect shifts, which does not happen every time.

Yea, manuals do make more HP from the flywheel but shifts aren't as quick, shift points vary with your timing in manual, and you have to perfect that 0-60' time.

You obviously do not know about cars either.

you should stop talking about cars mate cause you don't know shit, THE FLYWHEEL IS BEFORE THE GEARBOX therefor a manual and automatic would produce the same hp, automatics could possibly produced more due to a lighter flywheel but when you add the torque converter it evens out the heavier flywheel on the manual and the clutch.

And those paddle gearbox's are clutchless manuals,not fully automatic.

mate, don't come here and post shit you've found on the net.

Wow, automatics showing same HP gains? No.

Look at dyno results for all manual/auto cars. You can see that manuals produce more power BECAUSE OF A LESS DRIVETRAIN LOSS %, NOT bHP. You are getting RWHP mixed up with BHP.

Example: 210 bHP manual has 175 RWHP
210 bHP auto has 165 RWHP

Yeah, exactly, paddle is CLUTCHLESS. THATS THE WHOLE EFFING ARGUMENT OF MANUAL VS AUTO. NO ONE considers paddle manual, everyone calls it automatic, and it is considered automatic.

People drive automatic because they don't feel the need to wave their dicks around about how much better their car is than everyone else's. People who drive stick and don't give a shit, likely do for the same reason.

Who the f*ck cares if it wins races, like anyone here does. Grow up people, let the man buy what he wants.
