New Member Coming. Help Me Decide
Iam in the process of ordering a new TL,and just test drove a 6 speed to make sure I want the automatic.
Heres the thing the m/t is much more responsive than the a/t and probably funner to drive,but this car is going to be my business machine and I am not sure I want to be shifting all the time.And one other thing is I have a 500 hp cobra that has a clutch and 6 speed that is worlds different from the TL and it was verh difficult for me to adjust to the smooth&refined clutch/tranny combo that the t/l offers to the notchy monster I am used to shifting.
ANY ADVICE.
THANK YOU.
JOHN

I’m bias towards the 6 MT. I think that the improvement in brakes (Brembos) and performance with 6 MT is worth it.
But again, consider the source, I did order the MT myself

i personally like the 6MT but if you are going to use this as a business car and don't want to worry about shifting then go with the auto. although i can't see it being that much extra effort.

I GUESS THE MAIN THING I AM CONCERNED ABOUT IS THE BIG DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE 2 STICK SHIFT CARS. THE CLUTCHES ON THE 2 CARS ARE COMPLETELY DIFFERENT AND I DONT KNOW IF I WILL ADJUST TO IT OR NOT.
