I for one really want an automatic. I plan on having mine as a part daily driver to and from work (when weather permits

) and my drive consists of alot of bumper to bumper & light to light traffic. It will be no fun having to ride the clutch all the time. Sure you don't have that tourque feeling like you do with a stick but the power is all there and no missed shift when you want to have a go with someone.
PLEASE offer automatic the first year!
