Ok got one last one in me, been here for 9 years now and have owned 4 cars here just bought my 5th - GMC Denali its an triptronic LOADS OF FUN TO DRIVE AROUND.

As you all have mentioned the reaction that you get when u ask the sales guy for a manual, it is that much more difficult to sell a secound hand manual.

Its much much easier (and gets you a better resale price)to sell an automatic if when you deside to sell for what ever reason.
