BACK IN THE 1950'S AND 60'S, ONE HAD TO PASS THEIR DRIVING TEST IN A MANUAL OR THEY DIDN'T GET A LICENSE.

Hands down- stick shift is the best.  Don't let the wanna be auto-sticks fool you- they still don't feel as good as a manual.

If you pass your test ad get your licence on an automatic over in the States, can you still legally drive a manual car even though you didn't pass your test in one.
Always wondered this as I assume most Americans get their licence after training on an automatic but does it restrict them from driving stick?

I love manual trans

I drive a 2006 volvo s40 6speed manual and its great especially in the snow here in colorado you dont have near the controll in an auto as you do in a stick shift in the snow of course the AWD helps too

I did however own a late 90s mazda mx6 that was a 5sp but it had a hydraulic clutch that would only allow it to disengage at a certain (slow) rate and that took alot of the fun out of it

2 out of the 4 cars we own are 5 speeds. Hyundai Tiburon and VW Golf, both fun little cars.

after double clutching up and down through 10 gears all day, hopping into my automatic pickup truck is nice.
