Does the lancer evo or the subaru sti come with an automatic transmission?

Question

I've been on both of their websites and it seems that you can only get a manual transmission. It seems to me about the nearest thing I can get is the paddle shifters for the evo. I have clients in my car all the time and I dont want them to be uncomfortable with me changing gears and bobn their heads back and forth every time I change gears. Are they hard shifting cars or smooth shifting also which one is faster the sti is over 300 hp and the evo is like 290 thats pretty close so I was just wanting to know which is faster as well

Answer 1

If you are entertaining clients, you probably shouldn't be doing it in a purpose-built vehicle, (Except limos, of course.)

Also, both vehicles are cramped in the rear seats, because they are compact cars.

As to smooth shifting, there is no reason you can't shift smoothly yourself.  AT have a bit of a lagbump as well.  Perhaps you should get a car with a CVT.

Answer 2

if you can properly shift you will be fine,but clients in a evo or sti? they will be bobbing thier heads from the stiff suspension and crammed in less than steller leg room,try an altima or lexus  IS series

Answer 3

The new Evolution X MR comes in a manual with paddle shifters so no clutch pedal.  Pretty pry though.  STI 6 speeds are very smooth shifting.  It was designed by Porsche and I really think it's one of the best feeling tranny's out there.

Answer 4

Nope no automatics.  Your best bet is the paddle shifter setup.
