All of us at CarBuzz love the manual transmission, and odds are that if you’re reading this, you probably do, too. Why? It’s just fun! We like being more involved in operating the car and having an extra level of control over the driving experience. Plus, when we do really nail a rev-matched downshift, we feel especially satisfied. Apparently, though, driving stick isn’t just fun, it can even be good for you, and that’s coming from a famous doctor and professor in Japan.
