I miss driving a stick shift

[pink]

My current car is an automatic, I miss driving standard. ''



This is my dream car and it must be a stick.


Who will buy me this?


What is your favorite car?

At a first glance I thought the title of this thread was riding a stick shift!
I don't like stick shifts I wasn't very good at driving one when I was first married. I love the car I have now but it has 175,000 miles on it and is showing it's age. If I could make a wish I would get the same thing with no miles on it. Lol

I love my car but wish it was a manual.

Tiptronic.

5 of my last 6 cars had manual transmissions. I don't miss the automatic.

The six speed manual in the P was kind of a pain during the rush hour commutes to and from the office, but since I don't have to mess with that any more, it's all good. I'm old school - don't care for the paddle shifters, but love a stick. However the truck is auto, and that suits me just fine as well, especially when towing or hauling. The jeep has three on the floor, with high and low and a gear splitter overdrive, so essentially a 12-speed .

Would look good by losing the whale tail.

Would look good by losing the whale tail.

But would not handle nearly as well at speed.

To me, nothing is a bigger pain in the ass.

Going to get aftermarket shocks, a kit and a snorkel.

Modern-day USAC sprint car on dirt...

...sideways through a turn @ 130 or so.

In-n-out gearbox...

...it's either in gear or out of gear (neutral) - no shifting needed.

Same type of beast, just 47 years older...

Planning to ford streams?

Send it to AEV and they will send you a real machine.

 

[Lancecastor]

None of you has a fucking clue.

Most manual transmissions are shit, unfortunately.

I can't think of a near flawless manual transmission since the firstgen mazda miata.

 

[Saint Peter]

Skip the snorkel.

 

[Lancecastor]

Skip the snorkel.

Skip the Jeep!

 

[thør]

Skip the snorkel.

They come in handy up here. I've never had one, but I can tell you that a sopping wet air cleaner element does nothing for performance.

Skip the Jeep!

Land Cruiser all the way!

In my part of the world they prefer you stay under 80 so liftoff is not a big problem.

 

[Oh_That_Guy]

I drive a Taurus and it's an automatic but I can go into "S" and manually shift gears if I want. Sort of cool but I never use it.

 

[mibuilder]

Learned to drive with a manual and I enjoy it still but with traffic and such...my left leg would hate me. I actually had to get rid of a manual once because I broke my left foot and couldn't drive it with a cast.

 

[doowdniw]

Not so much the liftoff, as it is watching your own ass pass you going around a corner... well, okay, maybe it is the liftoff. But the other issue is where would you stick the intercooler?

A DE at the track doesn't require you to stay under 80. And if you did, you'd get run over.

Give me an old British 2 seater anytime.
