Auto is only good in drag racing cars with extreme amounts of Horsepower, so much that a human couldn't shift anywhere as fast as the machine could. If you have an Auto V8 Torque makes up for the loss through the tranny. But on a Civic or something the Honda Auto is a slow mf'er. My Mom has a 2000 Auto EX and I have an 1989 Manual DX and mine has like 40 less hp but would still own the EX.

It's true, but sometimes there's exceptions. For Bimmers, my friend in a 323i stick beat other friend in 328i auto. But then there's a few Bimmer people that say that you'll always get a perfect (near) with auto. :bigok:
