I’m aware that manual transmission ‘enthusiast’ cars should sell for a significant premium according to conventional wisdom, Hagerty, etc. But I don’t see this currently for low mileage e85s in the US. As an e86 owner, and previous z3 owner, I’m curious what others think about this.
The older the model, the less rare it is with a manual. Manuals have become less and less popular, especially now that autos get better mileage and performance.
So newer models with manuals are the ones that fetch a premium.
