Manual shift transmission. It used to be “standard” equipment. Now it’s presented as optional, and will soon completely disappear.

Not as long as there are sports cars and econoboxes.

Not so fast.. CVT econoboxes can actually do better than manuals and the “flappy paddle” gear boxes are taking hold in the sports cars.
