thats not the only reason some autos suck...
of course now alot of times the car might have a 5 or 6 speed manual and maybe a 5 or 6 speed auto as well. but where as a honda doesnt really have any torque anyways, that wide spread 4 speed auto that lets the revs drop way too much into the next gear, thats also a huge problem. even if the hondas auto could shift as fast as a human and stole the same amount of power as the manual, the auto would still be slower.

stock for stock, 5spd wins
if we are talkin 10.5 outlaw racing, then we can start debating. but the OP states stock for stock

As everyone else said. If you took a new stock 5speed 6th gen and new stock auto 6th gen, the 5 speed will win.
