Message	I'm asking all you members out there with automatic transmissions, do you regret anything about choosing your auto Z? I'm very close to buying another Z32 and I'm really fertting over this 5-spd vs. auto thing. Do both transmission systems have roughly the same longevity? And excluding cost, are automatic transmissions easily repaired or replaced? I simply love driving an automatic car, having the extra freedom is great. I've never owned an automatic transmission, but having recently bought my wife a new car, I've grown to love them. I don't care about racing, so I'm really looking for insight into maintenance. Thx all.
