How rare is the g37s 6 speed manual?
Yes, I am well aware of the difference between a CVT and a dual clutch transmission. My point was that manufacturers are killing off manual transmissions with a clutch

I have an idea, but nothing solid. The coupe 6mt is somewhere around 20-25% overall, and the sedan is closer to 5%. Or 0% for me when I was searching for 6 months back in 2010, at least in Canada. This includes the AWD models which of course are all slushboxes. I looked up as best I could a while back on cars.com to come to these numbers. It would be great to know year by year what the build quota was.
Edit: even better would be to know the breakdown on how many 6mt sedans were built for each color and option packages, like they seemed to track with the old muscle cars. I know I've never seen another blue slate 6mt g37 sedan around my area. I knew my first car, a used silver 2 door Jetta GLi (Jetta body on GLi guts) was 1/200 optioned how it was and only available in Canada for North America.

I am very jealous of all that have the 6MT S sedan. Wife can't drive manual, so I had to get automatic but don't get me wrong I love my S sedan. There where 3 6MT sedans available on the market when I was shopping.

It has worked so far. I've owned it since May and she hasn't driven it once.

I'm not complaining.
Lol, this ^
My wife can drive the doors off of a manual, but hates driving my cars. I'm so meticulous and **** about everything that she doesn't want to scratch or ruin anything. She does take it out now and again, though.
When she does drive it, she'll text me a pic like this of where she parked; all the way at the back of the lot, backed into one of the side spots...

My wife has no problem driving a stick and usually likes driving my cars because they are usually a lot faster than hers. However, she has not asked to drive the G37 yet. It can only be because she just got a new Murano.
You guys are lucky. The last time she drove my Evo, it came back with curb rash on one of the rims. She is still alive so I like to consider myself generous

What a nice gift.When I drive my teenager somewhere, you can hear her groan out loud when I approach a parking lot. Because she knows how far away from the door I'm going to park.
Meh. Kids. Needless to say, I don't plan on teaching them how to drive Dad's car.

Hey, I resemble that remark. Although, If I get a end spot like that, the passenger side is very close to the curb--- you know to give the @ssh0le that's going to park next to me plenty of room, just in case they decide to impede into my spot.
