Any Wagon
Acclaim
Berlina
Calais
Statesman
Caprice
Any Adventra
Any One Tonner V6
Any Crewman V6
Crewman Cross 8
Any model with the Supercharged engine

IT'S RIDICULOUS!

Cheers.

PS: Hey Grant, what do you mean "umm....."?
OK, Luxo models I can understand, but AWDs??

IMO ALL four-wheel-drive vehicles should be MANUAL.

I reckon manual should be at least offered across the board.

QUOTE (Boeing777 @ Mar 9 2004, 07:10 PM) I think if they do release a 5-Speed *real* tiptronic auto on the commodores, it would be perfect.
Yes, i think holden should release a tiptronic auto ... the one where u push the gear stick out and you shift it up and down. That would be good!

paddles on the steering wheel, don't have to take the hands off then.

autos make the best drag cars, but not the best track cars.

but a new 5 sp for the 6, and 6 sp for the 8, auto with tiptronic and engine braking on all gears is the rumour. so they should be a clutchless manual basically.

I think the only auto only holdens should be Calais +

all sport, all c'dores from berlina down should have manual option.

Calais is too classy for manual.

Doesn't the VZ has a 5 speed auto?

I got no idea.

Oh and the crewman crossx8 and adventra auto's are heaps harder to shift than the normal.. makes it feel real tough. and the crossx8 you sit so high, its awesome not having to worry about scraping driveways or anything.
