well the Q is can u work a stick jk well if u dont stick with the auto if u do go with the stick they all have the same specs but u can make stick move faster with the right foot and handWe own two Toyota Celicas, both about the same age. One is an auto and the other is a manual. For real driving experience, the manual is definitely better, much more control, much racier. However, for long distance driving and for easier driving, then the auto is better because having the auto gearbox gives you one less thing to have to think about.
