I say it is a little bit cumbersome but all modern cars are much more difficult than cars from the 80s.
Stick shift is easier since you don't have to deal with the trans cooler lines which are secured with a hidden screw at the bottom of fan shroud.
I leave the lower hose attached and remove it from water pump since it is near impossible to get to the clamp otherwise and it is a good idea to replace that hose a this time due to a nightmare to replace it as a stand alone job.
Lifting the radiator out takes some finesse to find the sweet spot past all crap in there.
