Re: SE Automatic?
basically if you have a stick, then youre sick of it and want an automatic. if you have an automatic then you want a stick. i hear what you're saying though, been up to boston plenty of times and the traffic is an SOB. i have a 97 se automatic and it's held me back in a few races, but stick has it's drawbacks too. oh well, a stick to automatic switch costs between 1-2k i think, correct me if i'm wrong anyone. if you've got the money, then i think the option is available. best of luck.

Mine is auto too.
Once a while I want a stick, but then I never regret buying an auto, esepcially when I was stuck in Bay Area traffic.

I need a little automagic in my life. I had a 5 speed and it SUCKS sitting in Boston trafic (I-93) with a F****N stick.

Yup, I'm guilt as well. 96 SE autocrapic.
Biggest mistake was to not get the 5spd. I had no clue how to drive a 5spd, that's why I went with the autocrapic at the time. Even now I would say I can't really drive a 5spd, but I am willing to learn if given the chance to have a 5spd Maxima!

Stick, even in heavy traffic, has never really bothered me.

Wow, when did you get the 5spd Maxima? I must have missed the thread.
Btw, since you're a Maxima owner now, your handle doesn't fit anymore.

i dont see why you guys keep crying about having automatics.
alot of fast dragracing cars are automatics.
i love my auto.
if you hate your auto cause its slow, get a torque converter and a VB upgrade. Im planning on it. Not because I dont like my auto, but because I want my auto to live through my racing days.
a TC and VB will cost just as much if not less than a 5-spd conversion, AND it will OUTPERFORM a 5-speed! not to mention last longer.

WTF, I didnt know I was an illegal-immigrant. Still, I would rather have a 5-speed just because they are more fun than automatics. Keep arguing about your auto with me though but it wont do any good since I have an auto. So your preachin to the wrong person.
