	Shayne,

	I recall when shopping for my V8 about 2 years ago, someone on the list
reported V8 US sales figures year-by-year, both by year of sale and year of
model, from 89-95.  I recall very clearly there were 54 1991 V8s listed as
manual transmission models.

	I thought I saved this list, but I looked through my file and can't find
it, thus can't tell you who said it.  That number stuck in my head since I
owned one and was curious.  His other numbers seemed very credible, though
I can't recall them all (something like 6,000 '90 models, 3,500 '91 models,
then falling sharply off after that).

	That number seems about right given how few I have seen - though 79 might
be the number also.  Either way it's awfully small.
