Also, at least in my opinion, the manual will be more sought after down the road. Even now people are like wow, that's a stick? The general public might like auto's because that's all they know, but most diehard enthusiasts of sports and muscle cars still like stick. It's not as dead as it seems.

Jt, I grew up in the 60s and 70s, sticks were all we knew back then. My first drag car was a 4 speed, as well as my second. Sticks are fun on the street, no doubt about that. I took my drivers test in 1968 with a stick so I believe I'm very familiar with manual transmissions. My last stick was a head and cam C6 with a 6 speed, put a set of drag radials on it and broke the trans, diff and torque tube. After 81 cars and trucks I'll stick to my A10s.
