Totally agree with you, I would never buy an auto sports car. But I accept each to their own. For me driving my roadster around out in the country with the top down, working the gears etc really makes you feel more part of the car and really enhances the driving experience , especially with my new Invidia exhaust I just fitted

I also would never buy an automatic sports car / roadster, but it seems soon we may not have a choice! I guess I'll keep buying used, but for now I'm still loving my 6MT roadster. As you said, there is nothing quite as visceral as a spirited drive with the top down, rowing your own gears. It's bliss!

Seems as if Nissan is just milking this to the end, saving the MTs for the Nismos and sport coupes. No matter how many times they hint at a new design, it's so apparent that blatantly they don't have the money to invest in new sports cars and especially for a new Z car, when they are probably stretched to keep the GT-R updated. I've given up and now view whatever they do through this lens.

IMO - Any New Z Will Be Electric - Too Many Irons In The Fire Right Now -

That Seems To Be The Way To Update The Oldies -
