Prolly not the best place to conduct this poll, since I would assume that we have much more "enthusiasts" frequenting these forum..... While I have no concrete research, it would seem logical to assume that enthusiasts would be more apt to purchas a stick (as opposed to non-enthusiasts)...

Hostly... 3% sounds about right to me...

I consider myself a Maxima enthusiast, yet I opted for the auto..seems up till now, this poll is working out about 50 -50, and I'd say MOST if not all of the contributors here are enthusiasts of the Max, in one form or another. One enthusiast may be more tuned into a good sound system for their Maxima, and yet another may be lighting obssessed.. whatever(and the auto/stick thing may just not be a priority for them) they are still enthusiasts however!

Auto or stick...

I got an Auto, but honestly I miss the stick, I drive in the city all the time so an auto I great for that, but for performance a stick is the way to go.

Double A

Stick next time

5 speed manual. I don't even like the look of an automatic.
But I do think a 6 speed would be too much shifting.
