Sez a lot about the direction of auto manufacturers making less and less truly manual cars.

 

I like it!!

 

I like it but I hope she doesn't run across any members here who agree with saving 'the stick.'

 

At least BMW is keeping a 6 speed manual on the option list for the new 3, including the 340.

 

For now...

 

That's awesome!

 

Love the sticker!

 

 

i got the same sticker but i never had a chance to put it on because i sold my CL...

for wife

 

The principle is good, the sticker is ugly as sin.

 

true but if it didn't have a graphic of a tranny, people would think my wife was trolling for love.

 

I am ditching the stick for now after 13 years (7 manual cars)...

sigh...

 

^^^^^ dude, you suck, slap yourself.

 

I wanna be like your wife!
Where can I snag one?

 

before i slap myself, let me see how long i can hang with the auto first

 

Dying breed, but save the stick, indeed!

 

eww wtf!? you crazy?

 

a friend is looking for a new car-she tells me, as devotee of a stick, "Scott, I can't have a manual any more, I HAVE to drink coffee on my way in to work." I tell her, you're not my friend any more, I've lost all respect for you. I used to drive a 10 wheel crane with a coffee cup on a 6 speed, 3 gear transaxle vehicle-you can do it woman!!

 

1 more reason for me to pick up an s2000 on the side

 

Nevermind. Yeah, do that!

 

Haha, I drink coffee on my way to work. It only takes a few seconds to take a sip. Does she hold the coffee in her hand the hold time or something? Is she constantly changing gear? That's a really strange excuse.

 

Agreed - and although I don't drink coffee, my car has a couple of cup holders conveniently located in the center console -

Maybe she is double clutching or drives a semi

 

I agree, it is a really strange (stupid?) excuse and the height of laziness. I literally told her "I don't know you any more, you're a disgrace to all drivers." She got a little pissed. . .
