With fewer new manual cars being produced each year, some shoppers find themselves buying used manual cars. Driving a car with a manual transmission comes with many benefits, but the one that consistently tops the list is driver engagement. While there is a bit of a learning curve associated with manual transmissions, modern features like hill assist and automatic rev-matching make learning to drive a manual car easier.

Due to their less complex design, manual transmissions are typically more reliable and easier to repair than automatic transmissions. However, an untrained driver can cause significant damage to the clutch, gears, or even the engine due to improper shifting. Drivers who are new to manual transmissions might want to hone their skills with a <a href="https://www.autotrader.com/cars-for-sale/cars-under-10000?transmissionCode=MAN">cheap manual car</a> before buying the car they’ve been dreaming of owning.

<h4>Manual Transmission Car FAQs</h4>


 
 What are the benefits of driving a manual transmission?
 
 
			Increased resale value - Due to the scarcity of new cars still made with manual transmissions, the number of used cars with manual transmissions will likely decrease in the future. This is especially true for sports cars and other enthusiast cars that appeal to drivers who enjoy driving manual transmissions.
			More rewarding to drive - Driving a manual car increases driver engagement and allows for complete control of the car. Perfectly matching the RPM on a downshift is a rewarding experience that never gets old.
			Lower operating cost - Changing the gear oil in a manual transmission is typically cheaper than changing the fluid in an automatic transmission. This is especially true for high-performance dual-clutch transmissions, which might have a proprietary formula specific to a single manufacturer. Also, manual transmissions are more serviceable than automatic transmissions and can likely be repaired instead of replaced.
 
	
		

 
 Are manual transmissions faster than automatic transmissions?
 
 In the past, manual transmissions were undoubtedly superior to automatic transmissions when it came to acceleration. However, modern automatic transmissions, especially dual-clutch transmissions, are often a few tenths of a second faster than their manual transmission counterparts. Some manufacturers have even eliminated the manual transmission option in their highest-performance models to achieve the fastest acceleration possible.
 
 
	
	 
 What is a Money Shift?
 
 A money shift occurs when a manual transmission is accidentally downshifted instead of upshifted. The larger the gap between the gears, the greater the chance of catastrophic engine failure due to exceeding the RPM redline. For example, accidentally shifting from fourth gear to third gear instead of fifth gear might not cause damage during casual driving. However, shifting from the highest gear to second gear instead of fourth gear at highway speed will typically result in the engine exceeding its maximum RPM.
