So, yes. I do know about commuting in the worst traffic. Buying an automatic is a choice that I had zero interest in doing with a sports car.

It was a joke.

By the way, driving in bumper to bumper traffic was great practice for heal toe downshifting. I can heal toe like a mad man now.
I'm bemused that you tolerated hours each day driving a manual in B2B traffic. I remember those days... too dumb to consider an automatic. I bet if you had a girlfriend or wife you'd reconsider, but guys like manuals so I get why you stick with the manual.
