Seems that any manual transmission is hard to find except in the smaller 4 cylinder cars, and that is even getting rare.

I guess if I want a manual trany, I just might have to settle for a Viper.

For the most part, manual shifts are out because of EPA mandates. Emission controls can be overwhelmed if you insist on shifting outside the "window". Economics plays some part too, other than people who are likely to buy a specialty car like a Challenger or Viper, there aren't enough people these days who know how to drive to make a manual shift worth offering.
