Then you can have the 6 speed manual, mk2 have better valve springs, and basically - the newer the car, the more minor updates it would have. I wouldnt go for the first year personally to save $2,000That car looks fine, has leather seats, premium sound. though - I thought you wanted a manual?

If standard is your aim - have a drive of a 5 speed before you decide.
