Back when I sold lexus, I never liked that you couldn't make a smooth shift on the manual. I have had a number of manual trans cars but that one seems to hold engine speed too high and it always hard to make it smooth.

That is the opposite of my wife, I had an S2000 (only come in a 6 speed manual) for 3.5 years and she was too afraid to learn to drive it.

With that being said, the IS350 finally convinced me that modern day auto-trannys are better than manuals most of the time.
