Pick up a (cheap?) car with a stick shift, learn to drive it. See if I love it or hate it. If the latter, get rid of it.

Use the information gleaned from this exercise to determine what sort of mid-life crisis car I really want.

Found a used V6 Firebird on Autotrader for 5.5K. Might not be a bad start.

Or maybe it’s all just a bad idea. Who knows?

Stick shift is like riding a 2-wheel bike.
Once you learn, you’re good on it forever.
