Yeah exactly... so either Toyota just wants to phase out manual transmissions in NA or is "shooting themselves in the foot" by not offering it in their V6 models because marketing says no. How'd the Accord EX V6 6MT sell? They had the coupe in Canada for a while then before the new Accord came out, it was available on the sedan.
