5. Cost (extra 1k for auto, and it costs more to fix if it breaks)
6. Also around 90% of Europe drives manual (Lazy Americans j/k)
feel free to debate if you feel differently.

2. This is not so true anymore. With computers in the automatics these days, automatics are getting the same gas mileage. This is only true for newer cars however.
6. Its 1 in 11 Europeans drive an automatic, while 1 in 7 Americans drive a manual. Lazy Americans is correct.
