The other, more long term strategy, would be to do nothing, save your money, so that in the future you can have a different daily driver and get a Camaro with a manual before they're gone

Yea, I'm really really afraid that manual transmission is going to disappear soon. I truly LOVE them. It's engaging and super fun to row those gears.

Actually this is kinda possible for me right now. I'm working in a place that I have access to automatic transmission cars every day that I can use it for my daily commute. And get a secondary car. Unfortunately, my family has some financial issues in Turkey, trying to help them out a bit. So I'll wait little bit more for it.


Also another question to you guys, V8 manual transmission clutch feels little bit heavy. I drove a Maserati (don't remember which model it was) which had a clutch like V6 Camaro. Is V8 clutch on Camaro heavier than others or was it Maserati doing something to theirs ?
