Has anyone tried converting from Manumatic to Manual
I bought an 05 crossfire Limited Roadster with the Manumatic and regret not buying Manual transmission. Has anyone converted their Crossfire to a manual transmission? About how much would it cost???

I think you're looking for a car that was placed in a garage and never driven, as apposed to one that has been used by an owner, and has risked things like rain, stone chips, and parking lot dings.
You should start looking west for your car.
Probably a larger selection out here.

I have one of those pampered garage queens, never seen snow and seldom sees rain. Almost perfect. All original. 36k miles. And NOT FOR SALE.

Looks like you were right...Found my 6 speed Limited Roadster in Cottonwood, AZ. And yes, it has my beloved two-tone Dark/Medium Slate Gray interior!
