Better handling (with a proper driver controlling the gears)
Less expensive to buy new.
More reliabe.
Cheaper to fix.

Only 2 or 3 of those count as 'more fun'. And those can be questioniable.

I don't know. I just think it's too much damn work. I enjoy driving less with one. I like my automatic windows, I like my automatic climate control and I like my automatic ... transmission.


I drove a friend's 5-speed for the week/week and a half that I was installing my SC and I hated it! I couldn't skip the CD track/turn up the volume when I wanted, I couldn't drink my coffee on the way to work, I couldn't hold my girlfriend's hand/put my arm around her, I couldn't flip people off as they honked and passed me in that slow p.o.s. lol. I don't know, just too much work man. Both hands, both feet. Just like I wouldn't want to crank the window all the way down by hand, I don't want to have to constantly shift the transmission by hand. Not for me.

I do like that they are faster. I'll certainly give you that.
