Hey for everyone living in the New York area (Any of the boroughs or Long Island) what is it like driving a manual transmission everyday? I was reading it can be annoying in tight stop and go traffic? Which is usually how it is here during rush hour. I’m in Long Island if that helps anyone here. Opinions on getting one, or stick to automatic?

    Where exactly is your commute? I’m on Long Island as well. I used to commute on the southern state daily, and hated it with my manual.

    luckily with the torque of the LS2, I used to let the car idle in second gear to creep slowly in traffic.

      You can do that in pretty much any manual. I always just spaced myself out and idled in 2nd when everyone else was stopping and starting.
