I used to think that, but getting older and having kids changed my priorities. My Prius is a boring car to drive (unless you treat getting high MPG like a game) but I don't care. It's safe and efficient. 99% of my driving is such that a higher-performance car wouldn't get me there any faster anyway.
I have absolutely no interest in cars or performance. When something is described as "fun to drive" I honestly have no idea what they're talking about. The main reason I would go to manual would be for the MPG.
