I prefer manuals, even in the winter. The auto has a nice advantage if you can start in 2nd gear, though, it's great for people who aren't too sensitive in the foot area, and can't really feel minute changes in the car's behaviour.

PS - why do people feel that they should put the grippier tires on the heavier part of the car, then complain that the rear end was "slippy"?

PUT THE BETTER TIRES ON THE BACK!
