Automatic is Life, stressfree but When overtaking the transmission is very slow. Imagine within town yesterday I was trying to over take but it took time. |

I uboma:Boss, you are correct. I drive both and I love speed, also need the feel of control that come with manual. I have travelled with both between North and South of Nigeria and I can confirm to you that anyday any time, Manual rock. |

moyo1993:like some recent model of Avensis in Toyota? Complex in shifts between manual and automatic and not completely put you in control. I have driven one on a stretch of 9 hours, so I know the feel. Manual my choice any day any time. 1 Like |

All i can say is, there are cars with both transmissions. Yes i mean automatic and at the same time manual shifts. So just buy one and you can always enjoy both transmission at the same time. That car was bought recently by a friend and i can say it was a great experience driving a car with both the automatic and manual transmission.

LadyMercedes: never said your opinion is wrong was just pointing out, the other side you dont see i.e the rest of europe is manual drive and of cause we find congestation but it never makes people change from manual to automatic we even have an option when taking a licence, having an automatic car licence or a manual having a manual means i can drive a automatic with 2 minutes of learning whereas with automatic i have to go back to learn and tested then get the manual licence 2 Likes |

moyo1993: remember manual shift of an automatic and of manual car are totally different shifting of a manual you depress the clutch and shift into the gear you want the with semi automatic you just push the lever into next gear more like sequential gear box you cant jump from 1 to 3 you follow the sequence 12345 whereas with a manual i can jump from 1 to 3 2 Likes 1 Share |

nurey: Surprisingly it's auto transmission that gives me "paja paja" , with the manual transmission both legs are working and it feels like I'm actually exercising but auto has only one leg working so I tend to feel stressed on my right leg. Maybe I'll start driving like Brazilians who use both legs to drive auto , left leg for the brakes alone while the right for the throttle. |

Re: Which Do You Prefer - Manual Or Automatic Transmission? by alikipo: 9:02am On Sep 12, 2016 |
Manual cars are more preferable interms of speed limits,by not exceeding the highest(changing the gear to the highest). Its hard to fall @ sleep when driving a manuel car,because changing of the gear puts you on a constant check. Manuel cars are easy to control especially for learners unlike automatic interms of applying brake. Once you learn driving with a manuel car,its easier for you to drive an automatic car.But if its the other way,then try to go for a driving school again(lol). Automatic are for handicaps(lol),majority of Nigerians like it the hard way. |

crypta007: You obviously don't know what you are saying. I'm not telling you what I think, I'm telling you Wat I do EVERY DAY. Unless of course ur own car wit auto transmission has a faulty gearbox |
Re: Which Do You Prefer - Manual Or Automatic Transmission? by wizjid69: 9:03am On Sep 12, 2016 |
LadyMercedes: I wonder. I know that changing gears is second nature. It's not difficult at all. It is used by professional racers so it has better control and quicker reaction time than automatic transmission. |
Re: Which Do You Prefer - Manual Or Automatic Transmission? by koxi: 9:07am On Sep 12, 2016 |
LadyMercedes: blood of god! !! Hello sir Wat are you saying?! D1 means gear won't exceed gear 1? You don't know what you are saying & obviously haven't tried it. Just ask Google |
