Why would you want a manual on a motorcycle? Wouldn't an automatic be better?

Automatic transmissions suck the life out driving. Hell, they even suck the life out of life!

How does the 2IS compare to the 3IS?

Did you get a IS250 3IS?

So far I'm loving it....well especially the interior that thing makes the 2IS look outdated completely...the drive is pretty good. I'm actually really impressed with the new chassis

Congrats on the new pickup... can't wait to see what you've got planned. Your 2IS was one of the cleanest builds around.

He's being sarcastic. Just like you don't like manuals he's saying, why would you want one on a bike?

Ryan, congrats on your new ride. I love the red interior.

If he lived in NJ he wouldn't want a manual either.
