  Here’s a thought: do electric cars count as automatic or the most manual cars possible? On the one hand, there’s no clutch or stick shift, but on the other hand, if you want to change gears, you have to disassemble the transmission and change out the gears.

      Combine that with the stupid piped-in engine noise (through the sound system) and you can make anyone feel right at home in last century’s technology.

    If it doesn’t change gears it’s not an automatic. It just is.

      Indeed. I am European and made my comment from a European perspective. I forget that the Americans stopped thinking long ago, am I right, fellow European boomers?
