Have automatic, wish it were 6spd...

Does anyone have some tips on attaining a 6spd version of the 2k2 maxima? Right now my auto is at 112k but the body/interior is in excellent condition. Only thing I can find are tiny paint chips on the front bumper from regular road damage. Tranny swap I hear is way too cost inefficient, though i'd love to do that. Car is practically in stock from, only mod's done are clear corners. I just really wish this were a 6 speed... anyone wanna trade? haha.

wow, so much negativity. I just got the car about a month or 2 ago, which explains why i'm still stock... I'm still paying it off. I was looking for a manual but when i found this for only 8500 I had to take it. I guess my only chance is to sell it, try and make a little extra cash on it, then buy another in manual form. I just don't think i'll get enough outta this to rebuy another one.

If you're serious about finding a 6-speed PM me. I sell cars and have buyers all around the south east. I can get a good clean car in a reasonable amount of time. I can get practicaly anything and we only deal in clean title, nice cars. No junk.

The cars in this part of the country rarely see snow and can be had cheaper than in most of the country. We can handle shipping and it's cheaper than you might think.
