I once heard a statistic on a car-related radio talkshow that nationwide only .5 of a percent of new drivers know how to drive stick. Here in LA, almost every new Mustang GT, Honda Civic, VW GTi, and a bunch more I know I'm leaving out, that on the city streets, are automatics. I've always thought of these cars as manuals.
With certain cars, Subaru and Honda have it right as I don't believe you can purchase a WRX STi or S2000 as an automatic. If a buyer wants an auto, they'll have to select another car.
