[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm also looking for a new car with manual transmission. Slim pickings.

I think Audi has one or two.

Maybe a Mazda too?

+1 It is really hard to find a manual transmission these days, unless you special order from the factory or want a sports car, like a Mustang.  I know that there are about 40 models that hypothetically come with stick shift, but many of these are not really available.  For example, you can hypothetically buy a manual base Jeep Wrangler for about $29K, but the reality is that even before the current chip shortage, you could not find this vehicle.[/quote]
+1 Two of our three cars are manuals. There are very few models but you can actually get a good deal - even now - on a used car with a manual since so few people want one.[/quote]

I don’t know about now but before pandemic manual cars were plentiful, new and used. I was looking for one in late 2019 and never had an issue with a dealership not having a manual version of Miata, Jeep, corvette, Camaro, Porsche, 86, bmw, to mention a few I test drove. Also, I don’t think used manual cars are any cheaper than automatic. Few people want them but also few people have them for sale[/quote]

PP here we bought a used Mustang convertible a few years back and only around six of the roughly 250 available on cars.com and autotrader.com were manual.[/quote]
