Excellent. Glad to hear you got a deal on the 350 I see your logic and would imagine that depending on how your significant other drives it, it really shouldn't be a problem.

As for the auto vs. manual thing, I hear you, it's automatics for my bride as well. She probably wouldn't mind shifting near as much as I would mind replacing clutches all the time...

Actually, she's a very good driver and it really wouldn't be a problem at all; but, I know she likes the automatics a bunch more.

Cheers,
