I always hated the thought of an automatic exotic eventhough i prefer auto cars yes i am a lazy driver. All my ferraris have been manual ones (I don't own a lambo at the moment), but after driving an F1 f430 and a few EGEAR MURCIELAGOS I have changed my mind. egear is awesome, much easier to live with especially in LONDON traffic, and so much fun while pushing the car, and i just love the way the car blips the throttle for you on the downshift. Definitely my next FERRARI or maybe a murcielago will have to have auto gearboxes.
