Swapping in a 6-spd trans is tougher (more expensive) than it sounds.
And take a look at what a used 3.2 or better will cost you.

Again, you'll be MIMES ahead buying the right car first.
I'm not one who thinks the car must be perfect, though. So for $6k, you should be able to find a solid "S" model with a 6-spd. Probably high mileage. Maybe a branded title? Uncertain maintenance history? Whatever. It won't be perfect.
But you'll be waaaay ahead compared to buying a base, with a Tip, and trying to make it an S with a manual.

YMMV, BPW
