    I'd say C63, but then I'm biased. Haven't driven it but had a ride in a car driven by one of their drivers... awesome drifting machine.

    i think it depends upon what u want it for ---

    for daily city driving, an auto is prob easier/convenient

    if u want to track, paddles or manual wld be my choice

    But I thought the ESP couldn't be completely turned off, wouldn't this sorta hinder the drifting?

    Yeah... I guess it's more difficult to get the car to drift, but not impossible, especially with that much power!

    This place just opened during the F1 period, they had the Red Bull drivers there: http://www.kartright.com/

    Wow, I'm surprised with the size of Singapore and the value of land that you could afford to have a go kart track. Well done.

    U're still up @ this hour??

    I'm a huge fan of manual simply because the earlier paddles (SMG2, E-gear, 430) left me with bad tastes. Especially when they're cold, moving up slopes or traffic jams. The system simply chews clutches. I've seen so many Egears/F1s that have pre-mature clutch jobs or blown hydraulics.

    I'm known to use my Murcie as a daily & in fact it is my daily now. I've stuck in 2-3 hours KL jams with it before & although it's not a pleasant experience, it's better than having a new clutch job every few months (used daily).

    Otherwise, simple autos are fine by me for runabouts, kids & supermarket stuff.

    That said, nothing beats a fast f1 on the track. There's no way you can shift as fast as "robots".

    Unfortunately, many people seems to have forgotten or scared of driving manuals over here now.

    Wow, I would have thought that the F1 transmissions would give longer clutch lifespans because they don't mistakes. But I've encountered some of the problems you've mentioned. My dad once called me to tell me that the 599 would not engage first gear while the engine was cold, but it eventually started moving after it warmed up a little.

    You are absolutely right Jon, so many people in Singapore seem to prefer autos these days. Even our taxis companies are switching to auto cars :D It's quite a big difference from Australia, where I think about 50% of the cars on the road are manuals without even parking sensors or cameras.
