Less engaging is an understatement. One of the main things that make street cars fun is being able to row your own gears. I stick to my statement that you don't buy an auto mustang unless your an old guy, girl or just buying it to have a "sports car".
Everyone has their own opinion. Guys on ls1tech are usually die hard 6 speed lovers until they get ass shafted by an auto car with less mods. Not everyone enjoys rowing gears. I do, much more than most. I had 3 MT vehicles at one point. Now I have 2 MT and one auto. Im getting older and I understand some people not wanting a stick shift. The only place I miss the manual in my Camaro is at the drag strip. It is boring because it is stock. Autos get fun in the low 12's to high 11's imo. Before that the manual keeps you occupied so you don't notice how slow it is.
I didn't go out looking for an auto 5th gen. It fell in my lap. After 8k miles I don't hate it. I always thought I would.
