Chocolate is the best, but I also like the banana. Better is both at the same time.

LOL. I often lean to the passenger side and move like I`m winding the window down manually and push the button to simulate the cranking. Most of the people know my foolery but I still catch the odd few.

Why did you initially decide to choose the automatic over the manual transmission?
Why do you want to change to a manual transmission now?

There is hardly any manuals for sale in white and around 2015 for sale in the area but one has come up for sale recently.

And I don't want to keep racking the kms on that car and loose too much value.

I really don’t care about the debate, but it’s funny to hear these MT guys (generally younger) acting like it’s some kind of manhood thing to get an MT when my grandma probably drove stick better than most of them. Because that’s what they grew up with.

The whole keeping the MTs around thing I totally get because it’s definitely on its way out, albeit at a slow pace.

I think we've moved past that, in this thread. I can come up with some more memes if it helps.

I've purchased two manuals since 2015 (1 new and 1 used) and drive a AT FR-S


Do I get to keep my man card?

And you also have to hand in your "Man Card" if you don't agree with me.
