I've had 3 autos, a NA 2.3 and 2 - 2.3 converted to FPT. The NA was a sweet drive around town and did well on the road. The turbos are much like the NA around town until you put your foot into it. The 3-4 and 4-3 shifts are noticeable since it is almost direct drive to direct drive shifts. The positive side to these shifts is very good acceleration on the road and excellent passing ability.
The around town fuel economy suffers from the high idle speed. In neutral the idle fuel consumption is like 60% of in gear idling consumption. I really like the way they pull away from a stop. The vibration at idle goes away instantly and the car moves off very smoothly.
