There is still cars with large (~50%) manual uptakes... through all generations Miatas, VW golfs (all variants), Subaru Imprezas (all variants), Civics (all variants). Notice how those cars aren't horsepower monsters or really expensive in general?
I think the idea of a car enthusiast needs to be separated from manual enthusiast.
It's never really been about speed and performance with manuals, its about driving enjoyment and control in all situations. What's the point of a toy that plays the game for you?
I'm currently shopping for a replacement to my 06' and likely not going through with it because of the sad choices in the price ranges I've had in mind.
