Fast Poll.(News)(Brief Article)
Does an automatic five-speed transmission sound like an appropriate credential for an exotic supercar? The silver arrow's new SLR may just get away with it.
Supercars can be front-engined, but the automatic says GT coupe, not supercar. I'm sure it will sell, but real enthusiasts will look elsewhere.
Brad Dietz, Herndon, Va.
Sure the SLR is an exotic sports car. It's just the type you're more likely to take to a fancy dinner than the local road course.
Tom Lyons, Lakeland, Fla.
An automatic would affect the appeal of the SLR for me. However, the self-shifting will appeal to the current trend of drivers.
Don R. Geiter, Sunrise Beach, Mo.
