I learned to drive with my grandfather on a Chevrolet C10 1970 that had the standard transmission and it was with the driving wheel and I was 12.when he taught me. One of my cousins still has it and drives but being in Puerto Rico it has lots of rust since was kept outside for the last 10 years. My grandfather died 2 years ago and he had 98 with great and healthy memory but his lungs were not oxygenating enough at that age and he was still walking around to church since he was a deacon. He died after he went to the bathroom and came back to take a nap after a nurse checked him out. He didn't want to use a wheelchair because he always said that he was able to walk and that it was better for someone else who couldn't.😉😂

For all those driving enthusiasts who like to actually drive their vehicles, let the car manufacturers know...we are still out there. SAVE THE MANUAL TRANSMISSION!

At least manuals can deter fun amateur thieves breaking in ramdomly.

It honestly felt like I was driving for the first time all over again when I was first learning how to drive a manual. After a week you'll lock down the basics, and after a month you'll gain some finesse and shift much faster and smoother. You honestly can't go back to driving an automatic once you've mastered it. It's a real shame that manuals are slowly becoming extinct. Yes you can argue that modern automatic transmissions have surpassed manuals in fuel economy, but manuals are much more reliable, and in the rare occasion that a manual transmission does breakdown, it's a hell of a lot cheaper to repair than an auto that broke down.

I learned to drive with a 5 speed. Manual transmissions are becoming rare these days, and if you buy a new vehicle with one, it doesn't come with any of the other options you may want. Just because it has a manual transmission doesn't mean the rest of the vehicle has to be stripped-down as well. The auto makers have once again decided for us what would be best for consumers.

Another +1 for a MT is ability to push start the car. I've been bailed out numerous times when the battery charge was too low to fully engage the starter. I will drive MTs forever and it's sad how many new 'sports' cars only come in AT.

Learned on a 46’ Ford sedan age 8. Dad got a 39’ Ford 1/2 ton truck highly modded engine with Lincoln Zephyr transmission ( four on the floor) with Columbia two speed rear end when I was nine. Back when the starter was on the floor. He kept breaking the rear end axle key and sold it and bought a new Datsun pickup first year of import 59’. I was 10 when he got that. Four on the tree. My last stick was an 83’ Tercel wagon five speed. Hated it in Bay Area traffic but out in the country where I live not so bad. Someday I’ll get a C5 or C6 if the world doesn’t end first.

BMW 6 SPEED MANUAL. LOVE THE ENGINE SOUND AS I SHIFT UP OR DOWN.

The most beautiful corvette imo...way nicer than the newer ones.

If you're learning, surely it's best to begin with standard/manual transmission. If you start out with one, it quickly becomes second nature, even if it is a little more to learn at first. I do like those Corvettes with the (relatively) smaller engine. 25 mpg on the highway is a practical proposition for those of us in the UK (where gas is almost $7 a gallon) who like American sports cars.

I've preferred manual transmissions ever since I drove a tricycle. I can recall not being able to shift, so I took one of my mother's knitting needles and bent it into a lever shape and stuck it in the handlebar grip hole. MUCH more fun, especially mimicking the gear clash into second such as my aunt's '54 Chevy did.

Can't get enough corvette related videos! I've got a 1995 and a 2009. They are manufactured in Bowling Green, KY just a little ways from you.

I learned to drive on a 1979 VW Rabbit. 4 speed manual. It took me two tries to feel comfortable starting from a stop. Shifting once moving seem second nature. Driving a manual is far less difficult then learning how to be a good defensive driver.

Me: starts searching Craigslist for a manual Corvette.

Those Vettes with a manual transmission really are a blast to drive, and nothing beats that V8 sound! 🏁

Very entertaining as usual Scotty.. Thanks. That Corvette is beautiful!

Just a couple years ago I picked up a 2001 Corvette very similar to this one, its pewter, has the 6 speed, lots of options. It only ran me $14,900, with 66,000 miles! Plus, I'm only the 3rd owner and it has a full service history too! Fantastic cars to drive, good on gas considering the size of the engine, and reliable as can be!

And that beautiful kentucky blue. Love it

Those Opel Kadetts were a real piece of work.

Scotty, I thought you might do a tour of the Corvette museum in Bowling Green, Ky., maybe less than 100 miles ? I've known three different middle aged guy's that bought used, low milage, Corvettes. They very seldom drove them, and kept them in a garage. It's one of the easiest used car's to find in excellent shape.

I lucked out and was able to pull in a GT350. Love driving to work and driving home even more. The sound and performance never gets old.

I was looking for one of these Vettes last year, but could not find one that was just right. This lady sure got a good deal, I think.

Yeah same, I drove a 95 250 for my first truck w a 7.3 Powerstroke. Threw a straight pipe on it some oil in the fuel & she would blow smoke like you wouldn’t believe & had so much fun with it, but if I had the money to put into it for 3-400hp rebuilt the transmission & make all sorts of power with it would be fun. The truck had the E4OD in it, it was fun for rolling coal especially when you had a bad injector blowing fuel & black smoke everywhere was an absolute blast. Later was having issues w it sold it & got a 93 7.3 idi with a 5spd stick. I drove tractors around our property for years & it took me a few minutes to learn how to shift it having a diesel helps w the low end torque & pealing out is pretty fun. My 93 idi is now my daily & would love to find a 95 7.3 in the future & would love to find my old truck in the future, cuz of the body & engine it’ll most likely be still on the road working hard.

I don't know what Scotty was talking about regarding the clutch pedals on Corvette Sting Rays (C2) being hard to release. Maybe the one that he drove had an aftermarket clutch. My 1964 Sting Ray is all stock, including its clutch, and I have no problem with its clutch pedal. It doesn't require any more force to release than the pedal in my 2014 WRX STi or my old long-gone 1984 Nissan 720 2WD truck. Thanks for the video Scotty.

Hey Scotty 👋 19 year old student here and i own a 1998 Honda Steed 600. It's first bike and i wanna take care of it. I think the clutch started to slip a bit but I've only been riding for 2 months and i can't tell. No speedometer or tachometer on it so i REALLY can't tell maybe something funny is going on with the cable. Love the vids man no idea how you manage to upload once or twice a day and still pumped with amazing content.

My first car was an Acura 5 speed standard. Had a lot of fun in that car.

Beautiful spec! Such a shame it's tough to get corvettes in Europe..

How much is petrol in the EU per litre?

No need for Corvettes in Europe, you can get much better cars with 300+ hp from an engine the size of a food blender's.

That 6 speed manual and all manuals are millennial anti-theft devices lol!

@Gary Mendez good for you. Teach more youth to do this! I was generalizing due to the nearly extreme rarity of seeing anyone drive a stick anymore in this age range. And there’s a meme for this too. One young lady in SC saved her life bc she drives a stick and a bunch of carjackers couldn’t so they made her drive them. Big mistake for them!

I have 4 cars and they are all manual. Yes, I am a mellenial.

My (retired) wife just bought a 2004 Vette coupe with an automatic, but it's still fun! Only has 44K miles on it and it's in perfect shape as well! She also got a hell of a deal at $18k.

I have an '02 Chevy Trailblazer with the Vortec engine that runs like a dream, kind of like the one in your other video Scotty, but I sure do miss the days of driving a standard transmission. Ran my '99 Pathfinder's transmission and clutch into the ground but it sure was fun 😀

Having knee, leg and foot problems is why some people don't own a car with a manual transmission. Too much pain to drive them.

Literally bought a manual this morning but it’s a fraction of the car a Corvette is...

I have a 2014 Toyota Matrix with a 5 speed. It's fun to have people in my car that are amazed to see a car that still has a manual transmission

I loved driving manual transmission vehicles, but after years of doing so, developed arthritis due to repetetive strain injury in my left ankle. Will be sticking to automatics the rest of my driving days.

manual transmission is the beeeeeeeeeeeeesssssst!!! i love em manuals

If i lived in america it's the only sports car I'd consider. They make perfect sense there. Manual of course!

Good video Nice car that Corvette, and even better with the six speed manual box. I keep away from cars with auto boxes as when they start to age the boxes start going out.

Took the old Camry out today, my boy came along. What an ordinary time we had, it was perfect.

I'm pleased that in the UK manual transmission is still more common than auto. If you pass your test in an auto and you're a guy then you're considered a wimp.

Is it still that if you pass your test in an auto gearbox you are not allowed to drive a manual?

@Snails40 The only person I know was a lady in her 50's who learned to drive after her husband suddenly died.

Learned how to drive on a 5 speed at 15 years old, I am 16 now

I used to have a 1957 Corvette and that car was the most fun I ever had with a car, wish I still owned it.
