Reply With QuoteThe main reason is because this is a british website (.co.uk is like englands .ca) and in england the auto tranny is almost unheard of. I drive stick for 2 reasons,I find it interesting alot of ppl on this site like sticks.
1) i'm originally fron england
2) My car is a Trans am and it just seems wrong to do an auto in a sports car.

I was first learning to drive a stick but I ended up buying an auto about a week after starting to learn. So after that point I got too used to my auto and didn't care about learning stick. I live in Australia and only got my P's a week ago, long live my Camira!

I wish my mustang was a manual. I really need/want to do a manual conversion. That would be awesome.

Drove stick for 4 years on an automatic right now.. (only driven for 8) I swear they're engineered to keep the engine revs too high so you'll use more gas but they'll stay in the higher gear if I speed up just that extra bit and then back off (cruise controll is even worse it breaks with the engine to bleed off speed when it should just keep that bit of momentum)
I've pop started once that's tough with one person if you don't have an incline
