just buy a manual car and be finished with it. a swap is a lot of work and money if you can't do it yourself and you want a manual car anyway. save your money and hold out until you get what you want. I am ok with the auto and have it setup nice, but I don't race so it plenty fast for me on the street. I am more into keeping the car looking and running in mint condition. I get the same looks and complements as the manual cars

Look in the FAQ under "Auto to Manual Swap". While you're at it, read the whole thing and the buyers guides if you haven't already.

You've just bought a third gen, have one post and already interested in an Auto to manual conversion....! I would suggest to buy a manual and start looking at the maintenance just to operate these cars.
