When I decided that I wanted to buy a Metro, I test drove an automatic with only 36,000 miles on it.
I pulled out of the car lot with a Semi coming about a half mile down the road.
It was all I could do to floor that stupid thing and get it up to 40mph before the truck was up my tush.
The MTs that I ended up owning would get up and go because I could wind them out.
I'll never own a 55HP 3-cylinder with an AT. Pedal-less AMT at a reasonable cost sure. AT... hell NO.
Again, we're losing sight of the price point appeal of this vehicle for the financially and shifter challenged.
