I'm not one of those guys who's going to tell you that it's no dice if it doesn't have a stick shift but there are definitely some cars out there whose flavor is vastly intensified when ordered with a manual transmission and this 2015 Civic Coupe is certainly one of them.It’s been a mere 9 months since my previous Civic Coupe test-drive, that of a significantly upgraded 2014 model that impressed in a variety of areas. That car introduced a new continuously variable transmission among a host of other changes. This time around I’ve got the same car – a Civic Coupe EX – but with one key difference - the standard 5-speed manual.
