7 AT has been shown to be faster than the 6M in various auto rags, but there are other issues with it, for sure...

Buying an AT over an MT just because it's "faster" is simply ridiculous. Does he spend his weekends on the drag strip?

Can't quote this enough.

edit - all the "guys plz he;lp which car is faster the g37 or the bmw/mb/audi/lexus/whatever" are equally ridiculous.

Manual cars used to be faster and more fun, now whey are just more fun. In the G37 the 7AT and 6MT are the same acceleration wise. Anyone who cares that much about 1-2 tenths of a second should get a faster car.

"Fun" is a relative term... depending on who you have as a passenger... sometimes it helps to have a free hand...
