I learned to drive a manual in a 97 camaro in highschool. That thing was pretty sad (though I did love it at the time lol).

I also agree about the s2000. My dad owns one that I get to drive on my birthday lol. So amazingly smooth and you get a "snick-snick"ness that's very impressionable. I also test drove the Civic Si and I must say, I think Honda has to be a dominant player in the affordable sports cars' transmission quality. The whole time I drove it I got the feeling that Honda had been doing this right for a long time and knew what they were doing.

That being said, you can't really weight my opinion too much as I've only driven a handful of manuals in my life.

Its like Honda did something so well (the S2000) they ran out of juice to make another similar car. I mean between the NSX, and the S2k, those people know how to make a RWD car - even if its FR or MR.

Stop making a car we wont afford and make one that we can Honda!!! Im lookin at you new NSX
