Default Not Everyone Should Write Their Own Ads
Been doing a little market research to see what price I should list my wife's car for sale. I was quickly reminded why I do not use Craigslist for anything... how could you buy a car with so many miles from someone this clueless?

It's the car that solves the auto vs manual argument, it has both

My car DOES have both - I've got sport shifting available, I have the option to shift manually (2000 BMW 323i)

(and 81,000 miles is "a lot"??)

Ok - the 6 speed vs. 5 speed is dumb...but CL is definately the Walmart of the internet...

But it's still an automatic, just one that can be shifted manually. It's not a manual transmission, that's a totally different animal that isn't hydraulically powered the way an automatic is.
