New Sedan 6MT member on the forum... going to meet up with "SomeName" tomorrow morning. I've found there's a narrow set of similar automotive values for people who intentionally buy a Sport Sedan with a manual transmission. So, could be interesting.

Haven't bought used since 1982. Dealer found ONE 6mt sedan on a lot in Alabama but it was black and a special order. I didn't have the salesman check the northern half of the U.S.
The G was an impulse buy in August of one of our hottest summers ever. I hated driving the Miata with the A/C running. Had to get into something with enough torque to not fall flat when the compressor kicked in. I'm afraid of BMW reliability and the Mazda 6 V-6 only came with an auto. A pointless distinction now...

Asking a dealership to find you a 6MT Sedan is a rope-a-dope. And CPO is a scam. Unless you happen to be in the right place at the right time, it's something you have to do for yourself.
Don't sweat it, man. The Journey Sport is an awesome car. We're just ranking on you because it's fun.

Are you sure about that?

I have a mount that goes in the CD player. I never play CDs, so it works better than a mount that requires sacrificing an AC vent. I use the phone for navigation and traffic reporting (waze). That location puts it in a spot I can quickly glance at without having my eyes off the road long, and I can reach without having to take my hand off the shifter (it's A/T, but old habits die hard). I'll take a picture of it next time I'm there and have another phone for photos. It's not very bulky, and stays very secure, with no bouncing/jostling, etc. It has foam padding you can put on the parts that go in the CD player to not cause any damage. It's this one.
I had a mazda3sGT prior to this and I had stash pockets all over the interior. I am just used to having a place to put it.
Thanks everyone for the input!

I was going through some of the car videos I like on Youtube, thought I'd share a video that I have saved as a 'favorite'.... it was taken last year from someone at one of the Cars & Coffee outings in Cali...
Just goes to show that NOT everyone should be buying sport cars....LOL! enjoy.

Is this different for different years or coupe/sedan?
