Answer is simple

All the people that bought Auto sell them to get manual, that's why.

If that's the case then they should of made more manuals to accommodate everyone . The market should be flooded with manuals not autos then since there in such high demand I wonder why that's not the case then

You can't hardly out shift the auto in the 1/4... but cool factor and smiles per mile = M6spd
L99 vs LS3 is also a big factor in favor of the row it 6spd too
They seam to me to be about 2 to 1 A6 vs M6 for sale out there

Open up your search criteria to other states and you may find some great deals on standard transmission SS's. I had to pay for shipping last year for mine but i had plenty to choose from and at some really great prices. Hit up the search engines on Autotrader or through the auto buying service on USAA and you'll be surprised how many are actually available. Currently there are 939 manual transmission SS's available on Autotrader.
