    manual....you're in control of the car.
    matic....less stressful drive.

    they said it na,e...but..

    manual: pagnasira: madali ipaayos kaya mura, at madaming pag-rerepairan..mag nagslide, 3-4 parts lang papalitan mo (clutch disc(mostly 1, pero may mga more than 1),release bearing,pressure plate) mas bulit-to-last ito than matic..a 80% right choice kung bibili ka ng secondhand..

    matic: pagnasira: magastos! basta magastos! pero ang basic maintenance nito ay drive the right way and change with the right ATF(usually 8 liters) every 40 thou kms...

    yup, first aquisition cost, talagang masmura ang manual...pero iba ang case kapag jdm converted units..sa rarity ng manual tranny, mas mahal pa ang manual units kaysa sa automatic counterparts nito..but hey, masmatiba talaga ang manual kaysa sa matic.... having a 1989 nissan auster(maxima) m/t a 98 kia pride gtx a/t and a jdm 1991 liteace...i could say na going strong parin ang 17 year-old maxima ko...

    bakit mas malakas sa gaso ang matic kesa sa manual

    conventional matics wala kang control sa shifting, which is an advantage of the manual.. pero iba ang case ng cvt trannies like on the jazz/city,lancer,etc....

    I'd definitely go for manual. Sarap magshift ng gears eh! Parang ang boring kasi ng matic. And you're not always stuck in traffic. Pansin ko lang ha, ever since tumaas ang gasolina, parang umonti na ang mga sasakyan sa kalye.

    I'd still go for manual...me sarili ka diskarte, mura maintenance and simple gamitin, and most of all, nakasanayan na eh!

    Drove a matic...cost too much for repairs n maintenance, not to mention ngawit left leg ko sa long drive. hanap-hanapin mo talaga manual eh.....
