They do make them in Auto. In '08 when they first came out, you could only get them in Auto, and from '09 on they have made them both in a 6-Speed Manual and Automatic. There is a difference in the performance between the SRT and R/T. The SRT obviously has the 6.1 (or the 6.4 if you get the '11), the suspension is far superior, the Brembo's are superior... But again that only matters if you're like me, and you want to have the top dog. I know a lot of guys with R/T's that have dropped some dollars on their cars and have made faster than the SRT's. Personally to me that make no sense. You could have taken that money and made an SRT, even faster than it already is, but to each his own.

Which leads me to Dominic Torreto over here

... No one here is knocking you for liking old Nissan's right? And if they did, you wouldn't care right? So if dude wants to drop 45k on car, who are you to tell him that he should get it in manual or not get it at all? Not everyone enjoys driving a manual and as awesome as they are, if it's your everyday car and you tend to sit in traffic, that six speed will become annoying really quick.

Buying a used car tomorrow from a private party. How much will it run me total for registration/title transfer/tax/license plate.. etc???? Nevada if it matters.. Just need a rough estimate


It really depends.  I know in California, you will have to pay taxes when you transfer ownership, unless it's a "gift".  However, if you are not paying cash it will be difficult to explain that, so you will have to pay taxes on the transaction.  You can minimize the tax hit by paying as much cash as possible and decreasing the loan amount.

So say you are getting a loan to pay off the private party, add a Nevada State tax.    Registration depends on the state, in California it will probably be an extra $150-250.  On top of that the person drawing up the documents will probably charge a fee.

because its a sports car, why try to front in traffic in an automatic?? son is asking how bad the gas mileage is and I would imagine if price for the SRT version is worth it. So why spend $45k on an automatic "sports" car if gas prices are going to be a problem. Thats more of a weekend/track car than a daily

and Ive been driving stick for the past 5 years with south florida traffic and it hasnt annoyed me yet, different strokes for different folks I guess...

i sit in traffic all the time. BAD traffic. i drive a stick. i don't even have to think about it anymore. never got that argument.

i'd take most cars in a manual, except maybe a 1400 hp supra.

It really comes down to how heavy the clutch is IMO. In most whips itll never be a problem but in others youll barely be able to crawl out cuz your left leg will be obliterated by the time you get to where youre going. Been there and done that, not worth it.
