That's the purchase price. In the US, the market for manual transmission cars is smaller and so unless you plan on driving it into the ground, that manual transmission could very well end up costing the same.

On top of that, automatic transmission cars are more fuel efficient, so the operating costs might be a wee bit lower.

It wasn't clear, but I was talking about the lower resale value of manual transmission cars.
