Could be a minor point, but the V-6 Accord is not available with a manual transmission. While the Volvo list a manual transmission as available and the automatic as a pricey option, you will be hard pressed to find a Volvo with a manual transmission. This makes BMW and Saab the cars mostly likely to have a manual transmission at the dealer. The 3 series all wheel drive BMW wagon with a 5 speed was nice, but price and lack of interior space was an issue.
