Also comes down to price.
You will pick up a "standard" ST Manual cheaper than the newer "limited" St-3 Auto of course.
If you don't really care about the extra bells and whistles i.e. adaptive headlights, heated electric seats HUD etc. and are more into just enjoying the manual performance save money-but resale may be less with more depriation!
I have ordered the St-3 in magnetic for $50,000 as i prefer an auto for daily Melbourne traffic and like a "little" bit of comfort --and are patiently waiting delivery
