Meh. They're cheaper to buy, cheaper to fix, and more fun to drive. It's not like they're really that hard to drive. Once you learn it it's just muscle memory. Which is probably the worst part because I keep reaching to change gears in my dad's car.

I agree for the most part, but when you get up for work/school at 7:30 AM the last thing I want to do is think about shifting. Ill spend the extra money for the convience. Plus that what the bike is for.

and savanah, i actually laughed out loud when you said it gets cold in north carolina. I went out today at -6 C (about 20 F) and thought it was absolutely balmy. if its warmer than -10 C in the winter, its a beautiful day. so you calling barely freezing cold is laughable. but back on topic. i love my car, it kicks ass in snow.

I've got a little 2000 model Holden Astra! I don't know what Holdens are in other countries. Vauxhall? It's a manual and I love it. I've accidentally crashed it into a few objects but it still works. And also it's red.
