Thats your opinion, I have zero interest in buying a car with a manual. Does not make it "more fun" for me. Its a PITA.

Sales figures tell the story, very few vehicles are sold in the US with manual transmissions anymore, even in models where it is available. Lexus had manuals...nobody wanted them.
