RE: From a Chrysler Rep's mouth (not mine)
No offense to those Reps, but until DCX puts it out on the official site, I wouldnt put much stock into anything.
As for the 6 speed. Its a shame if DCX cant figure it out. There is/was an aftermarket 6 speed for the LX platform. Some how the vendor pulled back the project after getting 1 car successfully converted.
It sounds like Cuda340's info may be close to being the closest to the truth.
I actually prefer a autostick. but thats just me, since it will be a daily driver for me.
