Shifter for sure
The pool of options for my next car is shrinking fast... only BMW and Porsche seem to stay committed to the manual shifting
I agree, isn't it crazy what the early 2000 Ferrari's are going for now?
I think they were the 612 or 599's that you could once get used for low $100K and are now over $500K simply because they have a shifter? Obviously a lot of people want and like the old 6 speed. Now the latest hyped hyper car has one the T 50
Seriously? Where do you see manual 12-cylinder models from that era going for more than $500k?
If that's the case, it's insane.
Being a mechanical man, absolutely LOVE your shifter. This is your Alfa?
And being a mechanical man, both my two and four wheels are manual ...
In any city you are right....
On a Sunday morning as the sun rises across a winding road ... the manual has a connection with the driver that is difficult to explain.
Not even close - have you even driven a real manual with 3 pedals?
In terms of connection with the road and/or driver, the difference is night and day. But, if you actually believe what you said above, I respect that opinion. 😉
What is wrong with being a little romantic
Sometimes, I like to dance a little under the dash Just remember Ayrton's white socks... The day I buy an automatic, I will die a little inside
Paddle!
you are much quicker on the track with paddles and a smart gearbox for the city: automatic for the old-timer and youngster: shifter because there never was a real choice at that time
i stick to the stick, its more fun!
Feels more alive to me, even on the busy streets of Paris.
Stick it to me, baby
I think I have had about 40 stick shift cars. I don't have pictures of all of them, but here are a few. I can drive an automatic, but it's not the same to me I often forget this MG TD and this POS Triumph Herald which I owned from a Saturday to the follow...
