What is better? Auto or Manual..of course Manual is the best!

I got an automatic because the auto had lower miles..I want to get a new Celica to just make it manual but the miles are high and the price is overpriced. My girlfriend said if I am going to buy a car why buy another Celica...

Is there any way that I can turn my auto to manual? Instead of buying a new car? Anyone in Southern California that could do it?

i would suppose that he is trying to talk fancy about the o/d button on the side of the shifter.

on is one mode
off is another mode

dual mode.

No LIGER ZERO isn't trying to talk fancy, he means it... I have an automatic and it is dual mode as well... All it is... is that when you are cruising and not trying to show out or rev beyond 4 grand you are in economy mode, When you are wanting to just through the celica through the twisties then you are probably revving above 4 grand and the torque converter and transmission adjust themselves to shift faster and at higher RPMS. I can take my celica st up to about 6 grand plus a few quarters and that is when the rev limiter kicks in and the car shifts.

So watch what yal say about autos, because not all celica's (definitely not all st or gt's in america) have the dual mode auto though...
