Comparing the same model, a manual transmission can accelerate faster and takes on bend better than the auto counterpart. So whos looking down on who.

The question shd be - Do you admire people who drive manual. It's more difficult and require more skill than an auto. So shd be look up and not down.

Huh?
Why would anyone look down on others who drive MT or AT? Everyone has his own preference. For instance, i like changing gears when driving. But I will always buy AT cars because of convenience (especially with so many shopping malls with slopes and worst, spiral slopes). So why the discrimination? -------------------- ~ Accident free for 52,000km and still counting ~

by default, family car is Auto transmission, normally driving AT represent luxurious and rich, ??? is it??? in fact i prefer manual than AT, not because its cheaper, but because more fun to drive and i feel in control. problem is, nowadays AD only bring in AT and my dad who occasionally drives the car also prefers AT.... so AT over manual as a status confirm incorrect statement. |

Never heard of such a thing! That's like a crazy statement! The broz here are right, to each his/her own, why look down on others?? Anyway, I always have and always will be a manual fan, drove an AT once and sold the car within 3 months of ownership despite the losses! Just can't take it!

If anyone says that to my face, I won't know whether to laugh out loud or punch him in the face!
I've never looked down on drivers of auto cars, I know each person has his own preference and some people just like convenience. So far I've never heard of anyone thinking in this way, although people tell me I'm crazy for owning manual cars in Hong Kong. |
