6MT and brembos are nice but the updated interior in the 05's is nice as well.

My friend own's a dealership . I currently own the 2005 5AT Sport Package, and he gave me the option to trade in mine for the 2004 6MT.

Thanks in advance for your input

If you really want a 6MT, now would be the time to do it. Switch the 19 inch rims to the 04 and take it haha!

brembos+6mt>20k miles+A little nicer of an interior.


although since you mention that the AT is already yours, the comfort of knowing the vehicles history is also something you might wanna consider.

Stock Brembos are not that great. I'd go with the updated interior any day. Besides you can always upgrade to better brakes..

I voted for the '04 only because I don't like driving automatics if I don't have to. That being said I'm not sure you're really getting much of a deal here. The '05 interior is nicer and the Brembos aren't all that great. If you really want a 6MT you should trade your car in for a newer 6MT and put some cash down to cover the difference, then you'll have the option to really come out ahead, as far as the car is concerned.

What ^^^ said.

If you're gonna do it, do it because you wanna 6MT. Not because it has Brembos.

i said 05' mainly for the miles and the comfort of knowing how you treated the car and knowing what condition its in. the stock brembos are whatevers imo.
