Without knowing much about this car or the person checking it out. If its in great cosmetic shape with an auto tranny, you wouldn't pay $700 for it? The reason that the autos were put in because there was a market for them. Sure the car is more fun with a 5 speed, but it really comes down to maintenance, or lack of it for either tranny. Driving in slow traffic with a 5 speed sucks, with an auto is at least bearable. 3K rpm at 70 mph is a joke, however 70 mph in a 5 speed ragtop with the top down isn't very pleasant either. Much more enjoyable at 45 mph, which bring the rpms down to a more reasonable level. I guess my point is its really up to the individual on what they like or dislike. There are pros and cons to each. my 2 cents
