Yeah true but being that it is being offered as an entry level luxury vehicle I doubt many would sell and it has also been proven that wagons with manual trannys are notoriously horrible sellers.
Gotta look at it from a money making stance rather than just an enthusiast stance because the enthusiast market is still only about 10% (if that) of total sales of new vehicles....most buy them used and the company of manufacture never sees a dime from the sale.
