And where are you from? And how old? Not “do you” but just if you know how.

I’m in the US, mid 30s and can (and do) drive a manual transmission.

Okay that makes some sense to me.

Follow-up question: why don’t modern commuter cars use the paddle shifters? Why keep the cumbersome clutch-and-stick system?
