If so, I was reading in Sport Compact Car about the MazdaSpeed6 and they said it has a new Mazda 6 speed manual that is the same size as the 5 speed in the base model 6 If this transmission was based on the MTX75, wouldn't that mean it could possibly fit in a 'tour? Just wondering if anyone else saw or heard anything CoolBlackSE99: proud owner of a 99 Contour SE Sport V6 MTX My cardomain page

I would say it's a new one, especially since it's AWD. But if you were to say, take the entire drivetrain, you'd have a unique Contour... I want one...
