You're right, you never said boring, you agreed 100% with "no fun to drive". Semantics.
I'm just saying that a GTR would be a lot of fun to drive. I get your point, but this car has so much power that, for me, the complete concentration needed to push this car to its limits and not crash it would compensate for not being able to decide when to change gears. If we're talking about other cars with a little more "reasonable" power then, yes, I would also prefer to have a manual. But this car is an absolute monster and would certainly be intensely fun to drive.......IMO.

You are forgetting that having control over the transmission gives you more control over the car though.

There is just no feeling like dropping a gear (or a few gears) and hammering it. Mashing the gas pedal doesn't even come close to that same feeling.

my "100%" comment was in response to what I had quoted in bold -
you wouldn't want it it because it's auto? -
:I wouldn't want it: I understand people who like the car/it's stats/it's praise.... I get it. I'd just pick something else over it due to it only being available as an auto.

My bad. Man, I must be tired.
@webby Edit: Went back and reread everything trying piece together how I misunderstood you. I guess I didn't even read the quoted part and just thought that you were replying to the comment just above.
Oops.

Sooooooo.....watched a couple Top Gear Honda Type R car vids. We still can't even get the EP3 Type R....lol.
Second hand market of the EP3 Type R is pretty ridiculous....almost like us buying a used Si.

No Im not saying that I wouldnt drive a GTR, but the point of having a honda is their very well known transmissions. So much fun to shift through, if he Type R isnt manual I will get an nsx instead. Thats all I am stating

Lol I'm not saying the type r will be auto and because the GTR is auto that the type r should be too. I'm just replying to a comment stating that auto cars with dct are boring which is very false. I'm sure everyone here wouldn't mind a GTR, Lambo, Ferrari, etc.
