Of course, if you know what you are getting into and why, more power to you!  |
Neither method makes financial sense though.
It isn't exactly a cheap straight swap situation.
On the other hand this is not the time in automotive history to be selling off one car to buy the same thing with a different transmission either.
You need to really, REALLY want that MT.
