    why can't I find a 2009 manual 6

    this is really getting out of hand - I never called anyone an idiot. Far from it. please re-read my earlier post. .. I don't even come close to calling anyone an idiot. I was called unethical - and an unethical attorney at that (which by the way - is a very serious charge to make against an...

    why can't I find a 2009 manual 6

    I'm really amazed at the response to the UAW's "must drive one of our vehicles" requirement. Yes I find it annoying but how on earth can anyone say that the requirement is unethical - No one is being "forced" to buy a UAW car. Taking the job is optional. If I don't want the requirement - I don't...

    why can't I find a 2009 manual 6

    I drove a manual the other day. Meh. I wasn't that impressed. I think my problem is thus: I'm currently driving an (old but great) integra vtec 5 speed manual. The integra is hardly a bimmer but its still a true sports sedan. The Mazda just doesn't come close. Less power. Far less road feel...

    why can't I find a 2009 manual 6

    Thanks - it would be nice if the Mazda dealers had 1/10th of your knowledge. They seem completely clueless. I had one salesman swearing to me that you can get a manual 2009 six cylinder. I finally made him look it up and he admitted that he was wrong. ... i mean for the love of god. they only...

    why can't I find a 2009 manual 6

    I've been waiting for the 2009 model for the last two months (largely because I need to buy a car made by the UAW [long story - job requirement] and I want a sporty car with a stick shift). Now they're finally out and I can't find a stick shift ANYWHERE (I'm in St. Louis). Yesterday, a Mazda...
