Twenty years ago, the advantages of a stick over automatic were:
1. Less expensive to buy
2. Better full economy
3. Better acceleration
4. Less expensive to repair/less prone to repair
5. More fun to drive if you don't have to drive in a very congested area
It looks like advantages 2 and 3 are no longer valid and 5 have always depended on where you live.
Since my long-term plan is to buy a 981 in about the year 2020, I hope that some folks keep buying the manual cars. (And keeping them in their garages and treating them like queens.) However, I guess I owe it to myself to try a PDK.
