ohhhh ok thanks that explains it, but the reason i want auto is because im a commuter and i just really dont feel like shifting all the time (yes im lazy), i have my project car if i want to shift and go fast, so what i am getting at is what would be the best commuter car with an auto transmission for me? high mpg and reliability under $5k. ill open up my eyes, it doesnt have to be a civic...and no hybrids
