Friend: "Dim, since you're in Indo right now let's have a trip!"
Me: "Alright."
Friend: "It should be a 2-4 hours journey, damn this will be fun!"
I checked what car was available... Only my RX-8 was available....
Me: "Uh..... I.... Only have the RX-8...."
Friend: "What about your Honda Jazz?"
Me: "Gone, I don't know why."
Friend: "Alright, new sensation."
We went to Malang, the issue here wasn't on the car, but the traffic.
3 hours of traffic jam!
Me: "Uh.... I'm starting to feel tired, you mind driving?"
Friend: "Umm, sorry.... I don't drive manual."
Me:
When we arrived....
Friend: "AAAAH YESSS WE'VE ARRIVED! I'll head to my room, you okay Dimas?"
Me: "Abso f*cking lutely."

real men do manual.

I ended up teaching him how to drive a manual, it was worth it.
Not with my RX-8 of course, his father's got a manual so we borrowed his car.

Aye, Mazda RX-8. Mine is 2006 1st gen, running on its second engine since the first once got cracked.
I turned it into a drift car, but this case we took it for a trip.
Fun car in overall, but it's got its flaws.
When it was completely stock, it was amazing!
Until I started modding it to make it suitable for drifting, driving it on public road is just a torture now lol. I still like it though.
