    2003 6 speed coupe-24K miles-what range of values for this car? 9 of 10 body and interior, no issues reports-word of mouth, no PPI-yet. My thinking is about 40K, maybe less. 6 speed is rarer than the cambio, but not as desired by the general public. One question regarding clutches. As I understand it, about 3K to replace the cambio clutch and seems to be needed about every 15K. What about manual? I would think a lot more miles, at least 45K with reasonable usage, maybe more, and probably less cost combined with a less expensive tranny.

    Manual trannies on these cars, not Ferrari based? If not-I assume not due to non gated gearbox-where are they also used or are they Maserati only(I'm doubting it)?

    Thank you. I have interest in a coupe semi-daily driver, not sure if it makes sense to go manual or cambio-I have concerns about the cost to replace clutches and gearbox in the cambios.

    I haven't driven one but reviews call the 6spd "truck like." Several here have expressed distaste for it. But I understand where you're coming from, I'd probably drive a 6spd before a CC just to make sure which I liked before buying. The 6spd would seem to have much less downside financially if something broke.

    The 6M/T is more Ferrari like than truck like.
    It is a little slow when cold, but fine when warmed up.

    The 6 M/T seems to sell much faster than the CC gearbox in the second hand market.
    The clutch will last much longer than the CC, so don't expect to save on the purchase price of the car.
