Default 2009 Manual Transmission

I was told by the dealership that Honda has not started making any manual transmission for the 2009 model year. Is this correct?

I don't think that's true. You can already build and order a new Civic with a manual transmission on Honda.com

The guy at the dealership said that they will start manufacturing the new civics with the manual transmissions in November and would be released in December. This excludes Si's. I also haven't seen an 09 with a manual yet.

Sorry, I just talked to another dealership in a different area and they said they could get a manual in any model right now. The dealership in San Luis Obispo are not well informed in this area.

Im sure you can get a 09 with a manual, those sell more then autos. Plus 09 model has been out for sometime now. Go to honda website and see if you can build a 09 civic with a manual

The guy is full of s***. I went to a dealer from my home town in santa rosa, CA and I will have it in a couple of days. I thought it was very wierd that the dealership in San Luis Obispo, could get any manuals.

I believe my stealer already has a 2009 manual DX-VP on the lot.

So, yeah, manual transmissions are available already for 2009....
