did compromise with the auto. I have always been a manual ONLY type of guy, so this was the largest conceivable compromise for me. And I really don't have any regrets. Now if there were a manual sitting next to the auto, I would not have given it a second thought.
I do use the slap shift quite a bit and especially when entering busy intersections. I noticed (at exactly the wrong moment) that there was occasionally the slightest throttle lag when taking off, and that was a huge shock. With the manual, you know exactly how fast you are going to take off, and if you accidently start off a little to slowly, you can just adjust with the gas and clutch. Not so with the auto; you are at the mercy of the car.
PS; I bet the 19's look awesome, but I wonder what else is affected... noticable acceleration difference? At the very least, very susceptable to rough road wheel damage.
