CVT is still a slushbox no matter what you say. Auto is auto is auto. As an auto, CVT is the best, but manual will always have a ton of advantages over auto. Most of them being the mashing the gas pedal to get it to actually get off its ass with the 10minute delay before it downshifts and speeds up.

Clearly you have never been in traffic in a city with hills so steep there are STEPS on the side instead of a sidewalk at a crawling pace with people riding your a$$. Do that, then speak.

I have always driven stick. Been to SF and LA in traffic. No big deal imho. Your leg gets a little tired, but it is easy to deal with.

Learned how to drive a manual around 18. I'm 24 now, and don't think I'll ever buy an Automatic again.

I dont think I ever want to own a car thats an auto. Ive always owned stickshifts and drove SF waaaaay too many times. Hill can be a bitch but its not that bad. Keeps me off the phone and I feel I pay more attention to the road. I also feel I have more control of the car. I use engine braking rather than all the brake tapping that happens in autos.

so true! i usually have my cellphone under my ear too.

standard transmission are the best. and they are really easy to learn but just difficult to drive on steep hills especially if you have to make stops for lights or signs
