I get it. I have trouble getting in and out of the spousal's car. I don't think I'll ever own a non SUV again.

I just bought son_derf a Subaru WRX. Here I thought he was the only person who wanted to own a Subaru. He insisted on buying a stick shift, as he claims it's not a sports car without a manual transmission (even though he has rarely driven one). We test drove it and the salesman didn't know how to drive a shift so we had to pull it out for him. My son only stalled it out a couple times as I held my tongue to not tell him to "shift now!". I think he is going to come to hate it, but I gave up trying to talk him out of it. I drove a Porche for a while years ago with a stick shift in our traffic it is miserable.
It is a pretty nice looking car for the money though.
How are you liking yours?
