Well, I had an Acura Legend LS coupe with a 6 speed manual transmission, and a Honda S2000, also with a 6 speed manual transmission - hence the user name, "2x6spds." Uh oh, I sort of lost my mind this evening and drove home in a new Acura RL with a 5 speed automatic transmission. No more 2 6 speeds.

All this time I thought your username referred to your use of tube amps. Apart from the obvious, whats your new name going to be? 2x5 doesn't sound so slick? eh?

Worse than that - it'd have to be 1x6spd+1x5spd or 2x5.5spds, just doesn't feel right.

2x4 has a certain fiber to it.

AAAAHHHH. You sold a car with a manual 6 speed for one with an automatic 5 speed? I hope it has at least got a "sportshift" function? steering wheel shift paddles?

sounds like a former friend of mine who finally got his own garage for his auto repair business. after several years he sold the first place and graduated to a shop with two bays. instantly he was called twobay. yup you guessed it. sold that place and got a 4 door garage. we didn't call him 4bay, we called him multibay. i can't remember his real name.

Good choice for your second vehicle, 2x6. I was wondering why you felt compelled to have a sedan with a manual tranny when you also have that little Honda for serious driving.
On the name change... maybe chesseroo can suggest something?

Hmmm...and I was wondering why you would switch from a 6sp manual (or any manual) to an automatic. I would never want to give up stick. It is so much more enjoyable to drive then auto, IMHO. Auto is for people who only drive to get from point A to point B, and not for the fun on it.
