I could be wrong (it has been a while since I last looked at it) but I believe the posted ratings for Toyota Corolla showed auto doing better than stick... there seems to be perhaps about 4 models of cars where auto is beating stick in the "posted" EPA ratings... having said all that, unless the gearing is really different, I sitll feel the stick shift will rule.
