/\ exactly the oppisite is true... Most Soarers produced weren't even the 2.5GT or GT-L models, and they were the only ones you could even get a manual transmission in (GT-L manual discontinued in 96, leaving the stripper 2.5GT as the only way to get a stick)... From what I can collect, just over 8,000 of the above mentioned models were produced, so even *if* half made had sticks, you are still looking at only 4,000 cars... Taking into consideration that most people in japan don't know how to drive sticks, and as a whole not many sticks are sold in japan (even the mk IV Supra's top dog model, the GZ, only came in auto form!) makes me believe that the MT tranny was installed in mabey 30%, at best... pretty rare, in my book
