Re: Manual

It all depends on you and how and where you drive your car.

I was in the same situation when I got my car. I knew it would be fun to have a manual car initally, but was wondering if I would get bored/tired of it. Well it's almost been two years and I've been driving my car daily the past year and it's still a lot of fun. I think part of it has to due with the fact that my daily commute is only 15-20 mins top on a highway that 99% time has 0 traffic. Even around the city it's fine. Now if I had a commute that was longer and involved taking roads that are always traffic filled I would think twice. I do think part of the reason I enjoy the car so much is the clutch is super easy to use (Acura RSX). You should have the same experience as Honda has the easiest to use clutches that makes shifting effortless. I've driven some older Mustangs and those clutches are like a leg press! So if thats the only thing your worried about, I don't see it being a problem unless your in some hardcore traffic everyday. My cousin was just asking me this question the other day as he's looking at Audi TTs which also only come in manual (the years hes looking at).
