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

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 bought a '13 G37S Sedan about a month ago and it was only one of two that I could find in Canada... people aren't selling them because its the last 6MT sedan produced.

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.

According to my wife I buy MT cars so she won't drive them.

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

My wife can't drive manual either. Sure, it's at times inconvenient. But it would be a lot more inconvenient to have to drive an auto every day

That's brilliant logic. Makes for a perfect argument to sustain your point

My wife can certainly drive a MT, but she's afraid of my G, and too concerned about damaging it to actually drive it.

It's been 4 years now. 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

That's so sweet that she does that. 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.
