Oh that's simple; they weigh over 4000 pounds. They have improved the handling drastically though, but they're not going to go anywhere until they lower the weight. You can pull off crazy numbers from the internet all you want, but power to weight ratio is everything.

But the fact of the matter is, pushing the pedal down in an auto with power = no skill. All you gotta do is keep the wheels straight.

Thats why I see some of these bammas on the road that think they're doing it gets me vexed.
It's not even up for discussion.
1. more control of the car.
2. higher man to machine connection/relationship
3. fuel efficient
4. loads of fun
5. launches, burn outs, doughnuts, drifting (see bullet #1)

If that's how giving an automobile a daily fapping makes you feel then enjoy.
I have no problem with manual transmission, but I prefer an automatic.
Now if we are talking bonafide sports cars such as Z06, Ferrari, Porshe, ect...then a manual is a must.

Again, auto in a car that is built for speed takes away from the feel tremendously.
425 running 14s is not a fast car. HP doesnt mean everything.

son u sounds like u know nuffin about drivin b
first of. "holdin da wheel" is as important as knowin da clutch.
second, i already went thru da fact that SRT's not only have PLENTY of horsepower @ 425 but its its incredible torque @ 500 lbs per feet. so you thinkin thats not "fast" is
foolish of you. as far as transmissions are concerned :
da camaro 2010 and cts-v run BETTER as a automatic then manual because of optimized shifts points VS da manual. expect manual cars to continue to lose ground to automatics.
1. havin a "better" driving experience is subjective. if da modern gear boxes are better performing then da old manuals..who are U totell someone they suck at drivin cuz theyOriginally Posted by 10 Piece Nuggets

Stop trying to justify all these new auto gearboxes and whatnot. Of course an auto shifts more precisely than a manual. You still have more control of a car with a manual transmission, and makes your driving experience 10 times better. It takes no skill to race an auto.
Granted you arent going to be racing every damn day, minute, second, street, red light. But stepping on the gas and "beating" another car doesnt exactly make you the better driver, nor does it show any skill.
And again you prove another point I make. All you care about is horsepower. When will you stop being so ignorant, and learn that horsepower means NOTHING when you are in a heavy car.
I dont know anything about driving? Says the person who doesnt even have a damn car from what ive read. Only thing you whip is your metrocard out of your pocket.
