I didn't read all of the posts, but a manual transmission is more capable of performance oriented driving than a manual, in any car, especially an econobox. The HP to the wheels is greater with a manual, the car is faster and also tends to be lighter.
In a city, an Auto is preferable, but I want performance first, so I went with the manual. But this car is not a performance car out of the box, and if you are not going to try and make it so, the AUTO gives you the ability to chat or one-handed text and drive all day long. I would imagine resale will be better on the Auto as well.
