I like what the car has to offer, the hp and speed. Looks good too, but the only problem is I can't drive shift lol. It would just be easier to have auto if it was possible, but oh well lol.

it always pays off in the end to just learn how...so many ppl have done it that way, as a matter of fact i have a friend who didnt even know there was a 6spd manual and all he did was ask the salesperson how to drive a stick he bought the car (subaru) and off he went.

Not to mention that any current automatic transmission wouldn't be able to hold up to the amount of torque the MS3 puts out.

okay if we want to be realistic, you would need the automatic trans from a Mazda3 Hatch with a FULL shift kit which im not even sure if they make those... if you come to california, let me know and i will teach you how to drive manual on mine... i taught my GF in less then a day and now shes my DD





Your looking at spending about a couple K w.o. install
