Pretty much any sports car can easily be had with one. If @KingofFluff wasnt such a P* he'd have a third pedal.
After talking with my uncle , about what I can get for my car , I am contemplating buying my wife a new Lexus with a bow on it in the driveway for Christmas , then she wouldn't be mad about my "used 1200 mile car" purchase.

Nope.

There are some out there that still come standard with a manual.
The problem is the nicer trim levels of cars nowadays don't have manual transmission as an option. You want a manual, no problem, but you'll also get manual windows and locks. Then manufacturers say, look, there's no demand for manual transmissions, so we'll make less of them. Self fulfilling prophecy.

And then there's this, just for laughs....

Take off your sisters bell bottoms. Put on your big boy wranglers. Become a driver.
Dude!, you forgot to mention that his sister needs her car back.

OP, the first part of your last sentence said it all! Go back and read it another 100 times and then ask yourself if you're ready for this. Look around your Hub, hey! Those guys and gals did it, why can't I?
No one has plans of becoming a UPS driver, we end up being UPS drivers. Girls don't go into porn, they end up in porn.

May be not distorted. Just out of date. At my building everyone who wants to go driving has been given the opportunity over the last two years. Some make it and some don't.
