Speed6 envy, trade? (joke... sorta:)

I really wanted a Speed6 whenever I got my CX-7, but my wife didn't want to drive a manual transmission (she hates them with a passion) and she said "just in case" she ever had to drive my car... we couldn't get something with a manual.

The CX-7 is nice, but man am I missing the speed, 4000lbs is too much for the 2.3 Turbo with an auto tranny... maybe if the CX-7 came with a 6 speed manual :(

Anyone wanna trade? :)
 
sure. pm me your address....wait..hold on...nevermind, forgot i had a cx7 already...:D
 
Just make that b**** drive a manual like I did.

My ole lady wanted a car, it was up to me to get it, so she got the manual. If she wanted to get to work and around town she'd learn. Sure enough she can drive a manual now, she's hasn't burnt the clutch, and it let's me enjoy her car whenever I have to drive.

You're just a big pussy.
 
LOL funny thread.

In all seriousness though tell her you HATE driving automatic and just because she HATES driving stick doesn't mean she can't do it "just in case". I mean damn....it's your car.

I got a lot of respect for you married types. I don't know if I could ever do it...I mean I'm young still but I'm not exactly too compromising when it comes to certain things (like my car). I guess I'll have to find a motorhead like me or bust.

(rockon) lol. When ever I get a new car the only question I ask the wife is how it looks. Other then that she has she doesn't care what I drive. Well as long as I don't go backwards in gas mileage.
 
My wife prefers manuals...of our cars, the CX-7 is our only automatic. She just asked me yesterday if they made the CX-7 in manual...only in Europe :(
 
Ya, I love that ad.

How come you gotta have an SUV?? What's she driving? Also I kinda miss your logic. My girls all hated to drive my old Vette when it was stock. Now that it's modded they wouldn't touch it with a 10 foot pole. Ah, the desired effect! So if she hates manuals with a passion, it simply means you don't have to worry about her curbing those nice rims, burning the clutch, stalling a hundred times a day, coming back from too tight a parking spot (sorry bout the bigass door ding, hunny)

So since you seem to be stuck with the CX-7, Is there maybe a kit for the auto in the CX-7? Might improve the fun factor.

BTW, a Mazda dealer WILL trade you, and you might not make out so bad these days with all the xtra Speed6's on the lots, just hold out for a deal and don't listen to any BS, they can sell slightly used CX-7's all day long...

i'm guessing your not married.....
 
Yes, you will def. understand when your married, sometimes you gotta compromise. But I have a big plus, me and my wife have an MS6 and a Mustang. We trade cars everyday, but neither one is boring, so I lucked out on that one!
