So... what does every one like and why? i just want to know what you guys as a whole prefer.. automatic.. or manual, and why?? i already kno what i prefer and why.. i just want others opinions. thanx

 

Manual is the only way to go for scions. The people who would tell you different are the ones with auto. I personally drive both every other day. Auto straight up sucks for the tC.

 

I have an auto.

I like it.

It's also boosted.

 

I have an auto and it sucks. I had to get the auto because they didn't have a manual. But get MANUAL!!

 

Manual FTW.. You get in the car are from the get go you have way more control over it. Auto if your daily drive involves hours of stop and go, but even then autos are boring.

 

I have an auto, I won't say it sucks or good either. but if the area often traffic then get an auto. manual only give you a little more power.

 

I have a manual but i drive it around all day in first gear.

 

Auto are for people that don't have a left leg... I have a left leg and foot so when I'm in a car I need both my legs and feet to move. I like to move my right arm and hand while my left arm and hand are controlling the wheel.. I'm not a lazy driver.. I like to be active as much as possible


Edit=== anyone that says autos are better for stop and go traffic.. well I started driving in NYC stop and go traffic and I love a 5spd in it. I have seen a lot of autos hit people because they forgot to step on the brake or where paying attention to something on the sidewalk.. people that say Auto is better for stop and go.. Don't know how to drive. IMO ...

 

what?

 

that something my dad would say when I was learning how to drive. You can't press down clutch pedal if you don't have a left leg.

 

manual is more fun but not in traffic, auto will hold more value

 

living in CA and driving an auto = happiness

 

Auto but I'm starting to regret it when it comes to going turbo etc. But sadly I've never been taught HOW to drive a manual. I honestly don't think I have the coordination for it. lol

 

thats not neccessarily true, sure, off the lot they will charge you 1500 more for the slushbox, but 10 years from now when there will be far less tc's on the road, teenagers will be looking for manual tc's, not autos

just like hondas


also, like stated above, 1500 more......no thank you, ill shift all day every day, and i love it!

 

manual all the way,ive driving a auto tc,and i didnt like it,it didnt respond as well as the stick did,theres pro's and cons for both.........

i do have to say there are days which i wish i had a auto but for the most part i love my stick i wouldn't have it any other way,

 

If you want to drive the car, get a standard.

If you want the car to drive you, get an auto.

 

If someone's decision in buying a car relies between purchasing a auto or manual, then a manual is not for you. I live in the dead center of L.A. and love punching my gears on my way to and from werk/skool.

 

this isnt a prius... lol

 

Just go drive both and figure out what you like best.

 

Manny > Auto. My first car was an automatic, then i got my scion with manual. IMO, manual is a lot funner to drive.
