If you don't mind, may I ask why you decided to get the automatic in lieu of the 5-speed?

 

I'll tell you why I went with an MR over the GSR.

Shifts faster than the manual
Not a conventional auto so doesn't have the slop, has direct power feel when you press the throttle, like a manual
Faster stock for stock around a road course
Easier to deal with in stop and go

Even when I learned of the modding drawbacks, I still don't regret getting the twin clutch over the manual.

 

I live in northwest Indiana, our car scene makes a lot of trips out to chi area quite a bit in the summer. Maybe we'll see you out there! I'll be in a red viii, wish I could've picked up a white X but I didn't have that kind of of money lol.

 

I wouldn't concern myself with the modding that much. It's mostly a hypothetical - up to a point - like projecting performance on a road course, when one's focus is the street

Congratulations and best of luck with the car.

 

I have been working on getting the X for about 5+ years... Thought it was time to get one now that they are done for what looks like forever

 

Congrats on the X. Welcome and enjoy ur car!!

 

I'll say this though.

If it wasn't a DD, and I don't track, and there's no real traffic in my area, and all I do is weekend drive through some twisty roads, I'd get the GSR.

 

Thank you!
