True driver’s cars are an endangered species, and enthusiasts who crave naturally aspirated engines and manual transmissions in performance cars now have to either hope for a manufacturer to preserve that formula in new releases, which is happening less often as the years go by, or scour the secondhand market for hidden gems of timeless automotive excellence.
