I checked with the local dealer in Hong Kong. They didn't sell manual model
anymore. What's a pity. People here in Hong Kong only settle with automatic
model. I agree that the 406 Coupe has the best design. But not for me, having
to use my as a family car. In this small city, the resale value of Peugeots are
less than half of that for the Japanese cars. Well, let the rest conform. The
406 may be able to turn the tide a bit. Regards..CC
