Ricky Bobby will become famous soon enough
Yes you're correct, only 3.0 in mt. Our wife will LoVE an e83 manual though, there are some LCI e83's out there with a stick and they are absolutely wonderful cars as well.

However, my vin diesel days are over so I picked the driving satisfaction of driver engagement with 3 pedals over the power increase with a v8.

When I want more torque and less driver engagement, I'll trade up for an LCI E70 diesel and get the torque I'm "lacking" and get 26 mpg doing it.
