Unless the car your selling is a sports car, in which case the manual version is usually the more desirable and thus more expensive model used.

the only vehicle ive ever seen where the AT model was cheaper than the MT model is a RX-8, and this is because each trim only comes with 1 transmission option where the AT model is the lesser model and the MT 6-speed was the fully loaded and faster model.

There are ups and down with manuals........I love it when I am in the mood to drive, but when you're not in the mood....it could get annoying. Oh well, I'll be boosting in like 2 weeks......so I am sure I'll love my manual all the time when I have boost.

I have ADD and actually focus better on driving when I'm driving a manual (keeps all the different tracks in my brain going at the same time)
Plus I learned on a manual when I was 14 and that's all I've had so yeah. -------------------- 1999 Celica GT

id never get an automatic - it keeps you away from the experience of driving the car - its more a sharing the experience with an auto than living the experience with a manual =)
plus i mean.. you can just have so much more fun/control over a manual..! |
