That's right! She's a rare one in the States, but most of the ones 
that were imported to Canada came with a 5-Speed. My '87 also has the
five speed with a stiff hydraulic clutch. The newer ones are easier
on the left leg, but I'm used to mine. The original owner of my car also
equipped it with(among other cool junk) disc brakes all around, 16" 
wheels, 245/50/VR 16 Gatorbacks, 5.0 Litre TPI V8(the manual tranny was
not available with the 5.7), Full analog instruments, top of the line 
Delco stereo, T-tops, cruise, PWR locks and windows(no PWR mirror or
seat), performance suspension, etc,etc,etc(!)

Are you foaming at the mouth yet? :)

Oh, so you don't like shifting? What a colossal shame! :(
Shiftless cretins should be made to drive TRABANTS  
with NISSAN auto trannys low on DEXRON for two months. :)

That'll fix 'em!!! :)

ACCKK! AirCon sucks away fuel and power! I just leave the T-tops open
and GO FASTER!!! I don't have leather myself, but it smells good and
is not a problem as the seats are true buckets that your ass gets
planted in.
