'ya know, it's funny...IIRC, the Auto console was an option and an  upgrade from the base Manula shift car on the floor...Yet, today, I can't help but love that 'ol Pistol Grip shifter with the Base manual shift car...The manul shift cars are more popular now, than the Higher optioned Auto console cars of yesterday..
