    This is true. Although I wouldn't buy a maxima to race or mod like that, only to be a DD, so I am perfectly content with maxima's being auto.

    Automatic 4DSC?

    You don't need to race a car to have it as a manual.

    As far as I'm concerned, professional racing drivers prefer manual H boxes in their daily drivers because a paddle shifted car would make them feel as if they are at work.

    You've never owned a manual have you?

    Maxima's have been advertised as 4DSC, but they are not, in fact they fall very short of living up to that kind of title.

    As far as I'm concerned I like driving auto's in my daily commutes, although I get the inclination that you swear by manuals, which is fine. And you constantly refer to professional drivers about this and that, but I am no professional driver, and their habits/priorites/preferences do not dictate what I like.
