My dad had a C5 years ago, and my mom gave him shit for not getting a manual the whole time. When he bought his 997S she made sure he did it proper. She probably drives it the most.

see,that`s how different the perception of the subject "manual" is here,..
for you guys it`s something special,for us it`s totally normal
I`d never dare to make such a statement here in Euroland

They don't. They use Segways.

I really like manual cars, I drove a 458, 599 but I enjoyed a manual F355 the most; used it the whole day in and out of traffi. it's not that bad as some might think,The only manual I've got is a 2008 Nissan Patrol (SUV). I would love to have a manual hatch back or sports car, too bad they don't make the 458 in manual as that would be perfect.
