auto to manual is usually in the 1000 dollar range depending on the engine

$1000 to swap from Auto to Manual, you might as well swap for a car, thats already a manual. just my $.02

theres plenty of reasons people want to do this

-it saves time and hassle, no need to put your car up for sale, and wait for it to be sold, transfer money, then go look for a new car

-some people like the fact they know the history of the car (like me) and would rather save it.

maybe because it wasnt their choice, or the car was given to them...

i guess
i remember reading on honda tech awhile ago
some kid was gonna get a civic for his 18 birthday or whatever, but his parents wouldnt let him get manual cause of safety reasons... and the kid wanted to swap in a gsr, put nos in, I/H/E all this stuff.. to a auto tranny.. and then convert after he'd did all the work.. heh heh
