    Nissan may have miscalculated... (manual vs. automatic demand)

    When I went in to pick up my oil filters and crush washers last week, I spent some time talking to my salesman. I asked him about the ratio of people wanting a manual transmission to those wanting an automatic, and he admitted that it's been about 50:50. Looks like Nissan was off the mark considerably when predicting the demand for stick shift.

    In our culture obsessed with absurd excess, the Nissan Micra is my counterculture car of choice.
