tbqh why wouldn't they? their gas is cheaper than here so the argument about better burning in manual is moot.

Unless you plan on drag racing, why would you want a manual?

it's fun. helps keep the driver driving

Because gas is cheap and it's easier dumbass

Why would you voluntarily want to make driving a little harder, guarantee you'll want a self driving car when they're released
>>
nice attempt at making yourself feel better for living in a shit country lol

>>61016500
A basic control of your car?
>>
>>61016346
because you can eat and drive at the same time

>>61016701
most modern automatics "feel" what you want to by how you operate gas though. sure it isn't as precise as a manual, but you shouldn't be reducing to 3 to overtake someone going "just" 90 anyway, right? ;^)

This pole is right, also driving automatic is comfy as fuck
>>

i've just driven both... and I actually prefer manual, but still drive auto since i live in a "big" (by our standards) city.

I feel like people actually arguing for either have only driven one, but I guess it's like that with most things

I once had someone try to tell me that manual takes less cognitive effort than automatic.

They are used to driving scooters.

>>61016346
Most cars are automatic by standard there so that's what they teach.

>>61016346
Sorry but the Americans win this one, it's way more practical and comfy.

Because I dont have to buy a clutch kit and replacing it every 80,000 miles. Automatics on reliable cars can last an upwards of 300,000 miles without an issue. Replacement? Its a plug and play system by replacing one from the local junkyard

Cheaper non performance cars have to deal with shitty clutch kits from Duralast
