Default manual to auto conversion... possible?

yes yes i know... why in the world would i want to do this... well...

im gunna be starting school in june, and it looks like ill be commuting back and fourth between school and home about 1hr each way, plus heavy traffic when i get out....

so in stop and go crap, i dont want to have to wear my clutch and leg out...

so would it be worth it to do the conversion, or just pick up some crappy 88 civic auto?

Its alot harder to convert to auto thats why its costs more at the dealer I belive

either way its going to cost you with a older car plus insurance
but i would get a second car like you said civic auto for like 800 or 900 dollars around tha area


Just think of this = Why fix something that isnt broke ???
Just get a Automatic civic or something

You can't be serious..Your gonna try to convert into an automatic, or spend 1000 bucks extra plus insurance becuase your leg is gonna get tired? or becuase your gonna burn your clutch? wow.. Hello..? YOUR CAR IS MADE TO BE DRIVEN...Your clutch is going to be fine..Save that $1000 to $2000 on something useful like books.. I go to university and i gotta drive 45 minutes, and yes theres traffic, but who cares.. I can't believe I'm even wasting my time responding..
