    Re: 1997

    would be the same as the 1991+ all the autos have the 3.0l and i believe all the same performance numbers

    From another post from 2008 "Once had a '92 auto completely stock G-tech'd 5.4 14.2"

    Automatic will be slower at 0-60. Good enough ballpark though.

    On a tangential note, the battery loads are not the same for the automatic vs. the manual. The automatic has a higher CCA if I am not mistaken. We came across this when doing some sleuth work as to whys ...........

    LOL! I have a 2500hd Silverado (extended cab) and I have 2WD. 2WD is rated to tow a bit more and I never need 4WD.

    I believe the Auto has a bit more robust electrical system because in the early years, it had electric power steering while the manual had manual steering. I read this in that book on the NSX's development process that is scanned in the wiki, I believe.

    Someone that doesn't need a 4x4, needs a higher tow rating and doesn't want to pay more insurance.

    I understand your point.

    No disrespect to Auto owners. It just seems logical to me that someone who was concerned with 0-60 times would own a manual.

    I ran across this website and they have some times but they don't list an Auto
