prentice said:she had been driving a 03 nissan specv with a 6 speed,and she said her next new car would have to be an auto,and once she drove the 06 with the auto she was hooked,i was trying to talk her into a 5 speed,but no luck,and btw the new tranny shifts like youve never felt before,they are fast and very smooth,at wot it will keep the motor right in the powerband,i was very impressed with the car and to me the car seems very strong,im taking it to the dragstrip sunday weather permitting,to see what she will run stock.
