Complete this: "A sports car with auto tranny is like a ......"

[sugarwood]

Obviously, without a manual gearbox, the driver loses a significant element of (rpm) control of the car in the turns....the entire experience and/or capability is fundamentally compromised.

Can you think of a good metaphor that reflects this?

sex with a man.

Ordering a spicy meal, then telling the cook to leave the spice out.

Telling everyone how much you're going to enjoy the craftsmanship of painting your own house, then paying someone else to do it.

Automatic transmissions are for those who prefer an LCD Timex watch over a handmade Swiss movement.

It's like going to the theme park so you can watch other people ride the roller coaster.

Automatic transmissions are what you use when you want to go for a ride. You use a manual when you want to go for a drive.

Spicey meal example is not bad....

Something that only does half of what it's supposed to do....

Going to the gym and only doing curls?
Going to the buffet bar and only getting one item?
Only using the letters A-M ?

buying a sports car with an auto is like watering a plastic plant. You can do it but it dont make no sense

Like having sex using John bobbit's penis?

[Z-man]

Buying a sports car with an automatic tranny is like:

...taking a ride on a skydive plane but not jumping

...ordering a Big Mac, large fries, and a diet coke.

...e-cigarettes

...going to the beach, and not swimming in the ocean

...buying a Playboy just to read the articles

...like masturbating with a cheese grater: slightly amusing, but mostly painful.
