Re: Porscheracer's comments about the Tip - actually, I think in soCal you have a better chance selling a (sports) car with an auto. Although I disagree with the philosphopy of an automatic in a sports car, most soCal drivers prefer the ease when stuck in traffic! I shopped 350z a bit before buying the Boxster and for the life of me couldn't find their top of the line version equipped with a 6 spd anywhere in soCal - dealer explanation - no one wants to shift in traffic!

I live in NYC and i drive a stick. what a rush! i get a around traffic no problem.
everyday feels like i'm autocrossing.
i can't get the same rush with a tip.. I rented a 05 Boxster in France drove from Nice to Monaco and almost feel asleep.
