As I stated above, I'd probably opt for the automatic (if it were available in the base), because the Jeep six-speed is very clunky in an otherwise refined sports car. Given that I'd have to go to Limited to get an automatic, I would probably opt for the SRT instead, and "dumb it down" by painting the windshield surround, door handles and strakes.
The so called Jeep six speed is a Mercedes gearbox (Chrysler #NSG370), you never took the hint from my first post.
Jeep started using the gearbox in 2004 (5?) they got it from Mercedes.
