No, there is no quick fix. A full manual was never offered in the QP.

As they say - you gotta pay to play. Stick to the newer model.

Unless a local facelifted ZF pops up (which it won't), I guess I'd better not.
This sure puts a damper on things.

BUMP!

I'm looking at the car in 45 minutes.
He's asking 50k.
Car looks clean.
If I were to make him a low-ish offer and see if he takes it, what would you guys suggest?

Get a PPI and get a reading on clutch life. They plug a gameboy in the car and it tells you how much is left.

Car isn't worth a penny over $40k....As I said before, go for an Auto trans.

He's going to have it inspected.
All 7k of the miles were to and from Cali on the highway though.
Car's an amazing find!

He's also selling a 6k miles Bentley GTC super cheap and I'm lost about what to do.

It's an '07. 6k miles. Optioned out.

What's a good price for that?

I was more impressed with moving from a 2010 Lancer to a QP...
