tbssubaru Posted January 21, 2009 Posted January 21, 2009 i went from a 5 speed 96 Legacy to a 2005 Legacy GT with AT , i don't miss having to manually shift during my daily commute one bit !

caramall2 Posted January 22, 2009 Posted January 22, 2009 As noted, I think it's personal tastes and sometimes where you live (e.g. if you're bumper to bumper every single day). I drove the auto several times and I really like it...for an auto that is. I personally just really love shifting, rev matching, etc....basically being as engaged in the car as much as possible. Every drive to work and the associated shifting is enjoyable to me. I would really miss it--but that's just me. Same on the track, I really like the fun of shifting. It's also great when your battery dies and you can "pop" start the vehicle.
