It tends to buck(or lunge) a bit and low speeds in gear. Mine is a 4sp so I have to push in the clutch and raise the rpms a bit before I let it out again. Kind of a pain sometimes like cruising through a parking lot or car show. I'm not sure how an auto car would react. Probably if the idle was higher all you have to do is keep your foot on the brake all the time and it's fine. It's one of the things that they talk about if it's "streetable".
