The autostick is an automatic transmission. You can pull the shifter down to the lowest position and shift it like a stick shift. As far as premium gas goes, some say as long as you stay out of boost regular can be used. Some say it's ok to use regular and the computer will compensate for it with a loss of horsepower. I had a Grand Prix with a supercharger and it said to use premium. I used regular most of the time and I did feel a loss of power but then I'm old and my foot isn't as heavy as was in my hay day.
