Good luck!! Finding either of those two automobiles with a manual transmission is an accomplishment.
I used to lease a '92 Acura Legend Coupe with a 5-speed. What a great car! If I didn't take a job when I drove all day in downtown traffic, I'd still have it. I still have the original brochure which said that manual transmission was optional "with limited availibility". Most people who bought these cars never saw a third pedal, and thought a clutch was a small pocketbook.
I friend of mine was lucky enough to find a good used Lexus SC300 with a 5-speed. Unfortunately he had it for about a week before it was stolen. He just gave up after that.
I would be afraid of any high mileage manual transmission car. Very few independant transmission shops know what they are doing with clutches, pressure plates, etc. You're just asking for a lot of expensive trouble unless you do your own mechanical work. Be very careful.
