While I am in the minority group of Id rather have a manual, it just doesnt make financial sence.
Are they going to sell less cars because of no 6-speed? I bet its not many, people who want this car, will still buy it.
When you spend so much money on the "ultimate newest exotic" ect ect most people want the newest best transmission as well, and this that just happens to be a flappy paddle tranny.
True enthusiasts will want a 6-speed. Unfortuantly, true enthusiasts only make up a small percentage of the people who buy these cars.
just my thoughts

ALSO for the USA the manufacture is "required" to maintain a stock of 10% of ALL items sold on a model for warranty and recall services for a period of 10 YEARS from date of last manufacturing and available to the public...so agian they have to "stock" on the shelf replacement parts that are not heavily sold.

I think this has now been knocked down to 6 years? I've spoken with a number of people frustrated with Ford obsoleting parts for very late model vehicles. Seems like they get out of their obligation as soon as they can. Or you can do like Daewoo, and just say everything's on backorder until the required term is up.
