Does any other auto tranny Yaris owner regret not getting the MT?

@daf - It's not nostalgia, just an observation that driving a stick is no longer considered a skill to learn.

I do not believe MT's will ever go away and if it ever came to be that it is more expensive to buy a car with an MT I would gladly pay it.

I've never owned a car that wasn't MT and I've also never had to replace a transmission, only the clutches. How many automatic owners can say the same?

I would not be surprised if MT is more expensive for some cars, even now. Not on the MSRP but when you go into a dealership, you can probably get a bigger discount on an AT equipped car sitting on his lot than a MT equipped car you have to hunt around for or special order...

I too would pay whatever it takes to get the MT version (if available) of the car I want.
