I never drove a MT..only autos for the past 3 years. My next car, will definetly be a 96 Z28-5.7 of coarse. My question is, will an AT be much slower than a MT?? I know in a mt, naturally you get to shift past the redline, giving a more direct feel etc.
Mid 05 i'll be shopping for one, and this is a concern i have regarding this car-or even any *sport* cars with AT's. Off the line will a MT be much faster than an AT..??
Right now, i got a 4.6 V8 95 ford thunderbird, with a AT. This car is quite underpowered @ 205hp/265lb ft weighing just under 3800lbs (RWHP is probably much less). Although it aint an MT, it feels pretty powerful (god knows what a 350 would feel like-can't wait) but the gets boring-it is boring :-)
If there is not to much differance in speed in an MT 96 Z28, and an AT..let me know. I have to go test drive these pups..
