Question Manual/Auto price difference

While comparing the various Z styles, in noticed the Enthusist Manual is less than the Automatic...which makes sense. However, when looking at the Touring, the Manual was significantly more $$$ than the Auto...is this correct? Seems strange, I always thought a manual was less expensive. Anyone else notice this?

It depends on the trim; I believe the Touring Roadster 6MT is less expensive than the Touring Roadster 5AT. However, last I checked, your correct with regards to the 03 Coupes.

yea, i noticed this. there is usually a $500-600 difference between the 5at and 6mt in touring models. but like u said, with an almost $1k difference in the enthusiast model (with the 6mt cheaper than the 5at). i dont really know why there is that difference except that the 6mt touring models have 18s instead of the 17s on the 5at.

The Touring 6MT is more because it includes 18" wheels along with both TCS and VDC.

touring manual is closer related to the performance, just with leather and bose, while the touring auto is more like the enthusiast with leather and bose.

all they share is those 2 things, besides that they are very different cars, which explains the unussual pricing.
