I’d buy a small electric sports car because of the high acceleration. I drove manual transmissions all my life and, while it’s fun in a race course, it’s far less entertaining in traffic.
Gas-powered cars are annoying to drive in traffic because the engine has a minimum RPM. EVs don't have that, so in stop-and-go traffic you'd be able to just leave it in 2nd gear the whole time and never touch the clutch.
