 WTF kind of question is that??? It's personal preference. The Auto's a bit heavy for a N/A but on the turbo models it makes power more consistently throughout the RPM range as there's very little drop in boost as it shifts. In a high power build I REALLY prefer the auto to most manual transmissions. What year and model and why are you asking? Someone tell you it was lame?

96-98 Supra Turbo. I'vr been lookin at a couple in this year range and all of them have been Auto's. Most people say auto's are lame and I didn't wanna get one and people bash me bout it.

Most 16 year olds (no matter how mature they like to think they are) wouldn't ever see 17 if they bought a MKIV..... half wouldn't live to 17 if the had a decent MKIII.
What 15yo can afford a MKIV anyway? They're not precisely the cheapest used cars.... unless you're looking for a beat up non-turbo without wheels.
