Stick.
Haven't owned an auto since my first car. Daily driver has a hydraulic clutch so no worries in stop n' go traffic.

that question always gets people riled up.
i'm saying stick for the fun factor, but like everyone said, autos are far more consistent.

80 L82 only made in auto. Wish it was a stick. I miss a stick for fun driving, but auto is much easier on the calf during rush hour driving.
