Using that bench mark, the C6 Mustangs were rarer in 1971 than the 4-speed cars as there was a total of 6,190 C6 Mustangs versus 7,672 4-speed Mustangs.

Rarity is probably not always what it is cracked up to be as it relates to desirability. I believe it depends upon what an individual is looking for in a transmission.

Thats the truth...I know on the strip people want the big c6 trans."Or some nice TCI atuo trans....My freind has issues with his new ford gt runing it on the quatermile with out buying a "stop the hop kit" that VHT track bite down glue they spray on the strip can break your 4 or 5 speed on that without the kit. and all that built up rubber...Heck your shoes stick just walking on it..lol..With a auto...None of them issues...More consistent times on your passes over all.
4 speed thou so much fun on the street..more power....Usualy rare too in the 70's... Due to the popular auto for big city driving..."been stuck in seattle on hills with a clutch on a trip omg!!" nightmare.....But i have to say i enjoy driving a stick...But in some places...I dont!! get me in a big city with insaine hills ..Omg...Ill beg for a auto..I hate putting a nice clutch threw that abuse
lol
