That and you will always get a better deal on a car on the lot than something special ordered. They want to move inventory and might give you incentives. If a stick sits around awhile since no one can drive it, it means better deals for us! I test drove a Crosstrek with a stick once and the salesman was salivating at the chance to unload it.
