Mine has the auto since i'd rather drink my iced tea than shift while going down the road, but that's just me. There still seems to be alot of these white/gray ones around, and all i've seen have the gray int. As far as plans go? I'm contemplating having hotroddiesels build me a hemi orange twin turbo 12valver and dtt transmission, who knows, i'll keep updating my info. as things happen.
