A 5 speed automatic in a Mercedez supercar? What were they thinking? I understand Mercedez' neverending strive to be classy and smooth, but a carbon fiber supercar, SHOULD have a manual transmission, it just should.

In all of the benz's the auto's are quicker than the manuals
so i believe that an auto is a good idea

not many Mercedes made with manual anymore- there supposed to be luxury cars
Before you criticize someone, walk a mile in their shoes; this way when you criticize them you are a mile away and you have their shoes.
Some people are like slinkies; not good for anything useful, but people love to see them tumble down the stairs.

They use Auto Transmission in F1, I see no fault in using them in High-Performance Cars
You'll never know...

i think he is refering to the open wheel f1 racing cars. like ferrari, mclaren/mercedes, bar, jaguar ect.
most of the cars now are run with automatic transmitions, and keep in mind that these are some of the the if not the fastest cars for racing around closed circuts.
