ok the system is a manually shifted automatic, and its called Autostick or Tiptronic (maybe a few other names). its still an auto, except you can choose the gears it goes in. This is not like the new systems found in the MR2 and Modena Spyder F1 which is called "sequential manual transmission" which is actually a manual tranny and all clutchwork etc is done by a computer, and you shift via paddles on wheel or buttons.
