Since it's a gay ass "semi-sporty-box" for knobs who are lazy and can't drive a motor with a proper gearbox.

I'm not in the city, I'm in the suburbs. It isn't traffic jams at all, but alot of city driving and I hated changing gears constantly. Maybe I need to drive a manual car. Yes, I have never driven manual.
But I got my Bimmer, in case you didn't read, and I was experimenting with the manual thingy. I know it's nowhere near the real thing, but if it's there, it should atleast be decent to drive. I keep getting the jerk when I switch. Someone teach me how to drive this thing.

A lot of SMG transmissions are jerky in manual modes or at low speeds.
How the hell can you afford such a high end 5-series, anyway, man? I know the States are much cheaper to buy a car, but still. What the hell do you do for a living?

Well, everyone on the E60 forums dry humps their SMGs, it seems. I'm no longer talking about SMGs anymore, I'm just talking about the manual mode on my automatic. What's the point of it if it's not like a manual car?

What's the point of having a manual mode on an automatic in the first place? Just stick it in auto-mode and leave it there, man. Why else would you get an automatic?
But really, what do you do?

because when youre in your spirited times, you drive fast. and a transmission which shifts up everytime you let go of the gas is annoying. manual honestly can get very annoying in traffic. and i tend to get alot of it going to work in jersey city. its especially a pain with a stage 2 clutch. i love my manuals but i can see why someone would prefer automatic too
