Is250 manual or is350
Hey guys I'm jus debating whether to get a manual 250 or to go with the 350? I miss driving a manual but I have feeling the 250 won't be enough power. I need your inputs thanks!

Depending on how the OP drives, roads/traffic, etc., a manual shift can be more desirable. For example, if a person's regular commute doesn't involve freeways, but more twists and turns, they would benefit more from a manual 250 than an auto 350, because that person is less likely to even use the extra 100hp without a decent straight. Some people also prefer more control over the car instead of just mashing the gas pedal and watching the speedo go. It's simply a different driving experience, there's no reason to question anyone's preference.
OP, what did you drive before? Personally I don't mind the auto 250. I never have any reason to use more than what I have, and I prefer going a little faster in turns vice a straight line, so the 250 is fine for me.

In my opinion you need to drive both, and drive them at least twice each one cause the short drive you get on a test drive from a dealer is really short, I know I had to before I decided to go with the manual transmittion, but that was due to personal preference. Remember the one that is going to be driving the car every day is you. so drive them and dont rush into it sleep on it before you pull the trigger

The difference is 102hp, to be exact..... Get the 350! Not slamming my 250 brothers, but I got a 250 loaner when having the valve train recall done on my 350 and felt like I may as well have been driving my Accord. The difference really is like night and day. Definitely drive them both, and you will know what I mean.
