That said I don't know how the Scion FRS sales, ignoring the 86 numbers because they're later, ended up being with the manual:auto ratio. If Jack was correct that more manuals were sold earlier...it then is baffling as to why Toyota wouldn't follow suit as there is a pattern established.
I’m seeing half and half in my state. It’s the Premium/MT/Color combo that’s hard to nail down here. Also I’m seeing more Premium than base around here.
