i drive a semi auto r34 turbo
it will never be the same as a manual, but i still love driving it
i only put it in Drive on freeways, most times i'm using the tiptronic and shifting gears myself.
i've driven manuals before, and for my sorta daily driving i prefer the semi auto (which is why i got it) as i drive in lots of traffic and manual would be torture. semi auto is basically manual without the clutch. thats how i see it anyway...
and better for straight line drags
up to you though, but do NOT get a auto non turbo lol you will hate your life! it should atleast be turbo
up to you though
