Done it with the automatic too...
Waiting on a left turn lane, when the light for the lane turned green, ECU was off, mash the throttle, turned the steering wheel left and the rear broke loose, creating Zanardi-like donuts!!! People were watching in amazement.

I got mine to kick the *** out yesterday coming from a stop sign and truning left. I was quite impressed at how tight the car felt while slidding and how quickly it snaps back into line. My Pirellis are quite sticky even in the cold, but I can still break them loose easily. But when they catch again they snap you back in the seat. I am quite impressed with how quick this little engine is in this heavy car. Very snappy, of course that could be the under 20 degree temperatures we are having as well. Keeping that little intercooler cold for me.
