They can't anymore not if they don't want to be left behind in performance. Electric vehicles are already proving to be faster, and even in gas engines, the dual clutch automatics are faster. Manual is pretty much dead if you want the fastest. For fun driving and to feel like an actual man from your father/grandfather's era ya get an old manual no doubt. That feeling cannot be surpassed.

People that haven't owned or driven one don't understand. I've owned a stage 1 tuned Evo IX, a completely modded 370z, two V8 M3's, a stage 1 tuned F80 M3 with 550hp, and a 997.2 Carrera S. When I traded the Porsche for a 2017 GT350 it was the best thing I ever did. I've always wanted one from day one but had no idea it would become my favorite car of all time. I NEVER get bored behind the wheel of my GT350. Even the sound in my wife's Maserati GT Sport is no comparison to the GT350. IMO, the ONLY thing Ford missed the boat on with the GT350 was not including rev-matching.

I love my gt350 i wasnt really able to drive it very much last year cause i live in southern saskatchewan so winter is crazy, so its been in storage until just last week when it finally decided to be spring/summer and its been awesome. another thing to note about the transmission is that it is AMAZING both with power holding if you want to add forced induction, but also in just raw feel, it is a MASSIVELY better 6 speed manual than the regular gt's manual, it is so tight its awesome
