Im looking to buy a fourth gen and all I see is 5 speeds. Im a third gen owner and I really want a 4th gen. I am really looking but cant find an automatic. I see a bunch on the org. for the price that I want to spend (around 3-4.5k) anyone know where I can find an auto for around that price.

The real question is, why in the world do you want an auto?

I'm never going back to automatics after buying my first 5-speed last April. I learned to drive stick on the Max. It is possible.

if u cant find an auto u r definitely looking at the wrong place. Try anywhere besides here (and even here in many cases). If u close your eyes and point to any car for sale site that has maxima's u will definitely see too many auto's. They are everywhere and they outnumber us

but its hard to believe that u dont want 5 speed and even harder to believe that u cant find anything except for it lucky man

that's why your friend rides the back seat, so then you can have all your concentration driving the 5 speed stick

Your blind as h3ll if you cant find an auto maxima. Thats all they sell in autotrader.com. Not unless you live in the mountains somewhere, where 5 speeds are abundant or something.

Your local paper should be littered with autos as well I'd think, as long as you live at least close to a city.

Can't find an auto 4th-gen max, don't want to take the 5 minutes to learn how to drive a stick...where's the motivation?
