What are some benefits to having a manual transmission car?

They continue to be less expensive to purchase, where they are available.

Small cars, with small engines, perform better with a manual transmission.

Manual transmissions are easier to repair than a traditional automatic transmission.

The clutch provides an extra measure of control that makes a manual transmission more pleasurable to drive for many people.

A manual transmission car is less likely to be stolen in locales where most people do not learn to drive manual.

They are the most commonly available rental cars in many parts of the world. You’ll pay extra for an automatic in many places.

Ok... enjoy your manual car. Lol

As if you'd pick a manual car if you went to car dealer today for a new purchase.

Manual cars don't need good batteries..

While I was in yabatech, there's a particular lecturer at the engineering department I think Mr loco or so...

His benz car was a 3 unit course because we must push his car everyday because of his useless battery..

All through my time is school, my neighbours were asking me for the name of my GYM center because of the grown muscles on my hand but they wouldn't understand..

OP should keep deceiving himself. I am talking of comfort and class. It seems OP doesn't stay in Lagos because traffic could damage your left leg when using a manual car. Besides, OP has never experienced a bad time when clutch gets damaged or leaked in a traffic, you go hear whin grin grin grin grin

Kulikuli is better than hot dog
Zobo is better than Champagne
Mud house is better than cemented
Vic O is better than Michael Jackson
Keke is better than private jet
Mustafi is better than Messi

Typical African mentality

We are so used to the hard life that we glorify suffering and easy method of doing things are shuned.

The more difficult the better and so we take pleasure in making life difficult for other people
