Blame the millenials ... why waste time learning skills when technology can do it for you?

As already mentioned in this very thread, there are other cars with SRM, although I don't know of any cheaper than the Z. Manuals are going bye-bye in general, so I expect those manufacturers that keep one around would use this feature to appeal to people with limited stick experience.

I used SRM to 'learn' how the Z wants to shift, both upshifts and downshifts. It was really nice being able to let the car tell me how to shift, and replicate it myself later. I love SRM's convenience when I'm in traffic and constantly shifting, although I hate traffic and this is rare for me. And I love that I can turn it off. I think the market is there and rev-matching will be a popular option for any manual transmissions that manage to stick it out (pun intended ).
