Anyone 'can' ride a motorcycle. Lots of people shouldn't. As a riding instructor, I have the awkward position of telling some people to 'get more practice on a bicycle' before coming back to class. Some mentalities are just incompatible with motorcycles, and I'm still learning how to customize my advice to those

I am figuratively in shock by that.

My daughter will be getting a manual as a first car.. none of her friends will be able to drive it.. so essentially, it will be a non-issue.. I'm half considering getting one with a manual choke as well.. so none of them would be able to start it either even if they could drive stick.

If the PR team at Nissan had half a brain, they would have given you a 370Z coupe with Sport Pkg and 6spd manual to test. It's not a new car anymore but that's what PR teams do with a mid cycle refresh. I bought one new for under $30k out the door. The Internet should GUSH over that car. Super crisp steering loaded

Wow, lots of Z hate here. I understand some of the criticism, but the biggest flaw in this review is testing a completely loaded model. I got mine with sports package at $28k. Tell me another car that offers similar performance at this price point?
