I’m stuck on this personally. I love my manual, I have a tiny little Mazda 2 and I have driven that thing absolutely everywhere because I can control it better than any automatic I’ve ever driven. But I’ve been casually looking for a new car and I’d love to have an electric, but I don’t want to lose that level of control and everything I love about a manual.

What do you all think? What’s your take?

Used Polestar 2 fits except for the screen.

They might do well with a “classic” version with less tech inside.

Can I get one for under $12k. Because that’s what I’m getting my GTI for.

Na more like 35k for a 2022.

But you just moved the goalpost from 40k to 12k 🤔

I was being extremely generous with my budget to attempt to include at least one electric. I’m not honestly in the market for any car that costs more than $15k.

Though I’d add that the Polestars I’ve seen look a lot like CUVs to me.
