not sure if this is a repost.
interesting regarding color choices in 6mt:
"We brought up this point of view with Honda, which basically said we should just be happy there’s a manual transmission at all. The Accord Sport model is selling well (exceeding expectations, Honda says), making up about 21 percent of four-cylinder Accord sales, but the take rate for the six-speed is only 7 percent. Overall, manual-equipped Accords represent just 3 percent of volume. Honda says keeping build-combination complexity low contributes to manufacturing and distribution efficiency, which helps keep the base price of the Accord Sport at just $24,505. That’s only $1000 more than a Civic Si sedan, so perhaps we should stop complaining."
