F*** yes it is.

Remember in grade 2 when the teachers tell you there's no such thing as a dumb question, way to prove them wrong.

wtf learn to drive stick if you drive those cars

[/ QUOTE ]

everybody always says this but it sounds like so much hassle to learn to drive stick. is it really a crime to get a nice car w/ automatic?

[/ QUOTE ]

Driving a sports car with automatic is a huge waste of the car's potential. Sure it will go fast and look pretty, but if you really want to enjoy it the most you need to drive manual.

It's sort of like going to a really nice restaurant and ordering filet mignon extra well done. Yeah it's gonna taste good, but not as good as if you got it medium rare.

Bingo!

EDIT - you can learn driving around 1 day tops how to drive stick via trial and error. Snag a junk <$1k car, or rent a bad one and you won't have the worry about damaging the clutch

Dunno how you can drive an automatic, it's like "Ok, point the steeringwheel where you want the car to go and smash down the accelerate button" atleast I can pretend I'm a racing car driver when I drive manual

I feel cool driving a manual. Nobody knows how to do it. And it actually feels like you're driving.
