I suppose you don't know how to drive a manual either :)

I drove stick for a couple of decades. They were fun at the time (except in traffic jams), but I'm no Luddite. I can enjoy being thrown back into my seat with roller coaster acceleration without the accompaniment of vroom vroom noises, exhaust, and shifting.

I did test drive a Tesla and i agree any electric motor does the throwing back better than combustion.
But being thrown back is not the fun part. The fun part is controlling the car around those bends on a mountain road.
Anyone can floor it in a straight line.
