4-speed automatic transmission w/OD
If you want more/detailed information on the AT take at look at the service manual, in there they have the gear ratios for the MT and the Auto and the Auto's shift points at different throttle positions.
p.s. interesting note about the gear ratios in the Auto: the 1st gear in the auto is approx. the average of the 1st and 2nd Manual gears and the 2nd gear in the auto is the approx. average of the 2nd and 3rd manual gears. The top 2 gears are virtually identical.

if overdrive is off, you only have 3 gears and if it is on, you have 4...if you like to downshift to slow down in an auto...when you are in 4th gear just hit the overdrive button...it is not as severe of a downshift as going from 3rd to 2nd but you can still feel the car start to slow down
here is what i have found my car does when flooring it
1st-43mph
2nd-75mph
3rd-110mph
4th-? haven't taken it over 120 so i don't know where 3rd gear maxes out
