i don't think anyone can really answer this question for you. either you want to shift or you don't. for me, it's a easier question than what car i would want. offer me a tip porsche or manual civic and i may opt for the civic.

all the pros and cons of manual vs. auto don't hold much water to me either.

- for example, clutch replacement...that happens like every 100k if you a good driver...some autos will need an complete overhaul around that time.

- or sitting in traffic...i would rather let the car roll in second (1st in the porsche) giving it gas every now and then than have the auto push me along at 10mph and then have to slam on the brakes to slow down and then stand on it until traffic moves again.
