I've always wondered why 4spd cars sell for more than autos.
The auto was an expensive option, so there were less made?

In reality almost no 1 can "out shift" and auto?

It is just the nostalgia factor?




Untrue, in most every case, the automatics outsold the manual trans.

Given the choice, I would never buy an automatic muscle car (have owned over 100 in nearly 27 years, 99% of them were factory 4-gear cars)... Nor would most enthusiasts that I know. We all know that autos have the potential to be more consistent, but that's irrelevent to me, as I'm not out racing every Tom, Dick and Harry on the street. Bench seats and pistol grips, that's where it's at!!!
