But I never thought there was a "bad" back in the day of driving the car in its time of production. Obviously, I couldn't compare a 1972-era car in 1972 with a 2006-era car, so I didn't know there was a "bad" to down play.
I think this is akin to watching old 4:3 TV shows from the 1970 on a 16:9 high def TV. The 460 resolution seems antiquated now but was crystal clear back in the day. Or has the image faded on the film/tape?

A manual transmission can be set to "comfort", "sport", and "track" modes simply by the technique and speed at which you shift it; it doesn't need "modes", modes are for manumatics that try to behave like a real 3-pedal manual transmission. If you can money-shift it, it's a manual transmission. "Yeah, but NO ONE puts an automatic trans shift knob on a manual transmission."
