I was even told that my insurance would be lower because manuals were harder to steal because so few people can drive'm.

I wish that was true in my city. I love driving the manual shift car but it certainly hasn't saved us anything on car insurance. The idea of a car thief who can't drive stick shift is so funny, needs a movie. The only benefits beyond fun and not worrying about an automatic transmission failing is some odd respect from valet guys and mechanics and old men.
