I'm making an inference of that information (provided from several journalists who talked about it at the recent GR86/ BRZ launches) that, yes, age is related to choice in transmission. In part because Toyota's demographics skew much older. I don't know if it is still 60+, but if older folks are showing up in greater numbers to a Toyota dealership, and are getting put in an 86, it seems they are choosing ATs.
Please give me your supporting evidence for this.
