Does the supercharged engine lend itself well to the auto tranny? Is it very slow off the line? Not that I'll be dragging, but some auto cars are soooo slow off the line.

Thanks!
Not at all, my wife has an '05 MCSa. It isn't slow to get going at all. It's quite peppy off from the line

(fyi, MCSa stands for Mini Cooper S automatic)
