what's the actual % of auto vs manual at the moment? for new cars sold, it's about 25% according to this article:

anyways, i learned to drive on a manual more than 30 years ago and had my first AT last year with the BRZ. in my previous car (1978 datsun 280Z), the parking brake wasn't that good, so i used the heel/toe technique for starting on hills.
