Why don't AMG cars come with manual transmission?
AMG vehicles are designed to deliver high performance while offering the comfort and everyday usability that Mercedes-Benz customers expect. AMG's transmissions are one element of this strategy. They permit customers to enjoy the convenience of automatic shifting, when required, as well as offering the dynamic attributes of a manual transmission through the Touchshift™ and Speedshift™ technologies and the manual gearshift mode that are being offered on many AMG models. Our research indicates that an overwhelming number of AMG customers would choose an automatic transmission even if manual transmissions were available.

you all don't get it stick=clutch and manual transmission like Viper , Testarossa, 911 turbo, lambo murc, 575, etc etc offer the real thing, not mb's version of a quasi manual i owned a 92 500e and altho the gated 4 speed was used on 90% of its shifts a real manual would have been even sweeeeeter...

yeah i think AMG is wrong not to offer manual transmission on their cars. i figure they could charge $3000 more for a manual transmission AMG car and there will be people who would go for it. I would be one of them

Are you asking if any C32s came stock with a manual transmission. If this is your question, then the answer is "no"
If you are asking if anyone was dumb enough to buy a C32 and drop a Muncie in there, then you must be confusing this with the Ford Mustang forum.
FYI: Most of us bought the C32 because of the auto, not "in spite of it"
If you have a burning need to row gears, buy an M3
