But I suppose if people went to a dealership to buy a car...they want a car that day and don't want to wait several months potentially to get their stick shift configured car.

^ I just bought a second car and I wanted it in a manual transmission. I had to request it, then put money down as a refundable deposit. Then wait a few months before it even arrived. '19 Corolla HB.


They did have one stick for me to test drive, and I was sold. If given the option I always gravitate to manual transmission. I really don't think it is as much work as people seem to think it is. + its fun and cheaper to buy.
