stick or auto?

after reading a post in generals on manual or auto, i decided to poll the board so if you would not mind,
if there was an option to have a manual tranny on all mercedes, would you have ordered your car with it? also please feel free to open this up for discussion if you feel mercedes should not make it an option or you wouldn't get a manual tranny.

i am going to average out the stats to see whats the majority's vote in mbworld

C32
Honestly I would not have bought the C32 if it only came with a manual. The reason I bought the car was because it was the best automatic I could find at the time. If I wanted a manual I would not have bought a Mercedes Benz.

no way

One of the biggest reasons I bought this car was because it was an auto.. I would not have gotten it had it been a stick. The Audi A6 4.2 would have had my vote and my money.
