I seriously doubt real, production SDCs from the likes of Ford, GM, et al., are going to lack manual controls.  Consumers will simply not accept them otherwise (I know I won&#x27;t).<p>If I&#x27;m wrong about that I guess I&#x27;ll continue to drive myself in an older car as long as it&#x27;s legal, which should be for a long time to come.  Hell, at the very least, buyers of Ferraris&#x2F;Porsches&#x2F;Corvettes (or even Ford mustangs) are not going to want to sit idly in their sports cars and be chauffeured around at the speed limit all the time :)
