| I don't really care for the transmission type, as long as the auto has more than 3 gears. I have driven a 3 cylinders, 3 speed auto Suzuki Forsa once, 0-100 KM/H in like 45 seconds...
Some cars I think are preferable with automatic. While shopping, I tried a few cars and I can honestly say I didn't like the Nissan Sentra manual tranny, the shifter didn't feel right or move smoothly. If I had chosen that car, I would have opted for an automatic.
I realized I wouldn't want to pay a thousand bucks more to have an auto, so I eliminated Nissan. Finally found another car with a "just right" shifter.
I enjoy it no matter the conditions. I like small efficient engines, so I'm better off shifting by myself. |
