I'm a high school student, and I want to eventually wind up where you are now...in some way, shape, or form. What ,specifically, should I do to climb the corporate (design) ladder to become a designer in the automotive industry? (e.g. design classes/jobs that could lead to auto design jobs)

That isn't all that unusual. Off-road oriented SUV's have a stick option a lot of times. The Wrangler (and Wrangler Unlimited), Xterra, and FJ Cruiser still come with sticks if wanted. You can also get Tacomas and Frontiers in stick as well.

not the mustang's steering wheel at all

GT by Citroen. That is all.
