>I have had manual cars
>I have had automatic cars
>i literally do not give a fuck

Im not picking sides when im pretty sure it all started with people getting ripped on for struggling with a clutch. It really does not fucking matter.

depends on the car, if its a low powered sports car (sub 200hp) you'd be a total faggot to pick auto

Retards tend to turn anything into team sports. They do this with cooking meat, politics, and pretty much anything else.

I wonder if there were hand crank elitists who called electric starters feminine.

We're (somewhat) self-aware software running on a shit-flinging tribal primate base layer. As much as we like to fellate ourselves for our superiority on this planet, sometimes the old ways still leak through.

it's just shit flinging

Anything with a cuckbox is for cruising and mpg maxing, they're simply too laggy

Where are all the manual/automatic shit flingers that dwell this board? I expected them to swamp this thread and shamefully explain their stupidity.

>>28906392
If cranking a modern high compression 4+ cylinder engine over by hand could be done without some massive geared flywheel contraption yes it would be considered less feminine. The Jewish battery society won't let you nu-males have this.

Sadly cars generally have an awful community. As in, those in particularly 'care' about cars at all, are more likely than not, retards. Any and all variables/differences, there will be a score of people whose mission it is to be the biggest faggot over it. I'm interested in a cars differences, pros/cons, its life, and likewise, the individual's/owner's experience with it. What wisdom has he gained from it? What do they like/dislike? Quirks? etc. I care very little about spreadsheet data shit (I do enough of it for work and other hobbies).

It'd be much nicer if this sphere was more for gentlemen, but sadly, it couldn't be further from it.

Cars as a hobby are one of the most normalfag hobbies you can get. Only naturaly the vast majority are unironic retards since normalfags are retarded period.

Im in the manual daily and auto weekend car minority and nobody understands me

Technologically speaking, the modern sports auto is so infinitely superior to a manual (paddles are not a fucking manual, get bent) that they're completely incomparable.
But it's not about objective capabilities, it's about driver experience and ability.
So manuals are superior for sporty cars.
(Nobody is making their living in these cars, if we were then obviously automatic would be superior)

That said, I'm not going to be an asshole to someone who prefers an auto, ball busting in good faith aside. I just wouldn't buy one for sports car shit.
>>

>paddles
Depends on which type of transmission. DCT is mechanically a manual. It's just you have the option (!) to use the car as an automatic.
>>
>>28908012
holy cope, it could just as easily be the other way around
>>
>>28906392
Highly doubtful. Technology was evolving and at least in that period of time the formula for a passenger engine was still up in the air. But I guess I had to deal with idiots that dislike how easy the sanitation system was to discharge on a Virginia class submarine simply because it got designed with check valves and it was no longer possible to blow literal shit inboard.

Automatics are gay as fuck and sound like shit, can't stand listening to auto cucks talk either. It's always, muh LEDs, muh heckin stance, muh glue on aero lip shit

Another thread on this just popped up there is no fucking grace period

Yeah not to mention it's a "manly" normalfag hobby so when testosterone and insecurity come along in the same person the hobby becomes a war.

Even in initial D they keep calling races "battles" and add drama.
>>
>>28906368
i eastern europe (inb4 why should i care), automatic drivers shit on manual, because they "finally" freed them themselves from "shuffling a knob"
an there's this "modern auto transmission is just as efficient as manual"
they never change ATF fluid because they believe its "lifetime" and "manufacturer knows better"
but they're first to stop under the bridge during heavy rain

basically cringe af

I genuinely did not enjoy driving until I tried manual for the first time. Auto is just not engaging or enjoyable.
