No manual accord v6 for your model years 98-2004, this is true.

The new accord does have a manual on the V6. I have no clue if they work/match/or are even swappable, but it won't be cheap, becuase it's only the new cars that come with one. Probably around $2000 for the transmission plus all the parts and work, if it even fits. way too much.

hmm you a chick what do you look like? i am tall, dark and all chocolate. ust joking with you. maybe they made a manual tranny for a earlier year or a later year that would be compatible for your car. also just a though (trying to help you) but maybe you can search other classes such as lx's or something other than what you have or (doubt it could be) but see if four cylinders offer manual tannies of your year and see if it would be compatible. remember honda has cars compatible in the years of fours. ex. 88-91 92-95 96-99 from what i have seen, could be wrong like in the case of 99 civic si and 2000 civic si. hope this helps. love to see girls who drives stick and drive it well.

That sucks. How about same year Acuras. Maybe one of them had a manual and the same engine family.

something has to be compatable and solve this dilema that you have. good luck and hope you get this resolved. thats good to hear that you can hold your own when it comes to a manual shifted car. so no visual aids as to your appearance, i am as i stated before keep your results posted.
