I'm probably going to buy an EX sedan soon, and was wondering if it was possible to special order it with leather interior and the 5 spd manual tranny. They are mutually exclusive, at least on the website. I'll talk to the dealer as soon as I think about it, but was wondering if anyone else had done it. Thanks!

i don't think so ,if they have sx with your options, maybe but will be long and pricelly the same with sx but less options

Thanks. I'll try calling the dealer today and see what I can finagle. I'm buying it as a second car for good gas mileage, so I'd rather stick with the EX over the SX

In case anyone else was wondering, it is impossible to get EX leather from the factory with a 5spd. However, the dealer said that they can put leather seats in it through a 3rd party company, though I'm skeptical to try that, especially since it probably won't get heated seats or the leather steering wheel/shift knob.

Haha no thanks. I bought the Forte so I can turn my Corvette into a dedicated track car, so I'll be blowing enough money as it is
