[Roadsters] automatic transmission

[Mike Harper]

Lighten up.  I have not yet seen anyone "making fun" of anyone who is not ABLE
to drive a manual transmission.  There is a difference in not being able, and
just not wanting to learn how to drive a stick.  IMHO anyone who just thinks
it is too much trouble to learn needs a modern car, however making a roadster
drivable for someone with a disability is a noble and worthy effort.  I
thought the electric top comment was funny, so please let's not get offended
without proper provocation.  I'd love to see the electric top mechanism fold
the quarter windows over and tuck them in.  Pretty nifty!  Maybe a little
automatic hammer to whack the voltage regulator when the points stick???  The
possibilities are endless.

My Dad had to give up driving his Roadster because leg issues mean he can't
drive a clutch anymore. An automatic roadster would be the only way he could
still enjoy one. Making fun of someone because they want an automatic is a
pretty lousy thing to do. The alternative is just not owning a roadster.
