Torque converters take away power and a little more fuel mileage. Therefore i dont like them. Manuals are alot more fun anyways.Booo automatics.

@ubuntunoobz not anymore, automatics used to be more expensive because of research and development, but now, all the parts are mass produced and simply laid into place, just like a manual, and manuals have become more expensive because its the thing most people want, and its viewed as an option. automatic is now the base transmission, as well as autostick, where you can use paddles, or left right/up down, stick control of your gears, however that is not as satisfying as a real manual tranny

@DrSurprise manual transmissions used to be the cheaper buy, but now that people like manuals it tends to be the more expensive, only because of supply/demand, however, the pricing is barely more expensive, and when it comes to older cars, there is no difference. however, i dont agree with him, but manuals are something that takes time, and in the long run, potentially more money.

@truenolz manuals arent fun to drive in bumper to bumper traffic, and costs more when it comes to replace the clutch every however often in said traffic, i own a manual, but still, id rather have an auto sometimes,

@DrSurprise how about an automatic transmission is more pricey then a manual? ever thing of that. automatic transmission is a luxury. or infact the only way a girl can drive a car. =D
