Daily driver.... Has to be automatic ( I have an 05 Outback).
Fun car needs to be manual. I have driven many of the new automatics, with the so called sports mode (tiptronics, sporttronic, etc). They still are not as fun to drive as a manual, and most of them are pretty lazy in the shift change.
The other would be SMG or sequential manual gearbox, tried it on a new BMW 5 series (my next car). That was loads of fun. Specially nice to change gears in the turns.
But I would have 1 choice, I would take the manual, I would even suffer through traffic to be able to have that fun once in a while. :D
