I put the Charger in the class with Maxima and the 4 door beamers. Both offer sticks and I can't really see the demand for that... but there are some folks who want it and the Co. gives them that chance. So I believe if the expense is not too much they try to cater to those few individuals. I believe the Charger to be a sport sedan and thus worthy of a manual transmission. I think with the LY platform that will be achievable.
