Do they exist?

Can you get a Lambo with a 6 speed manual box?

How about a top end Rarri / Porche / Masser / Bently SUV thing / Urus?

I like pressing the left pedal and shifting a car into gears when driving.

Don't want flappy paddles or pre-selection semi automatic glans buttons.

Looking at some US modding forums it seems that there are a few 600+ftlb manual transmissions available but;

- they're not exactly sticky in use and,
- even then they're delicate relative to their power trains

The outlier, and obvious answer, is the T.50 - but that has less torque than a family derv-box, so it gets away with it.

Noble M600.

Not sure it's still available new, probably not.

Astons? Didn't they say they would be doing manuals still.

Lambo's not for 10 years or more. Saw a Ferrari California at Niagara last year that was a manual.

McLaren F1 of course

No

No / only if a GT3 S/T/Touring counts / no / no / no.

Some manufacturers might build you one if you get the chequebook out mind, Aston used to build DB9s etc with them if you'd pay for it.

Unless you're actuating the gearchange yourself I'd say it doesn't count...

If cost is a metric, the GMA T50 and the T33 are definitely hypercars but with looks of a borderline supercar !

Yes they do, thanks to the Superformance GT40 available in the UK in RHD from lemanscoupes.com.

When I was looking for a 675LT the only other car on my shopping list was a Superformance GT40. I test drove one at LeMans Coupes 6 years ago and was blown away. Its the most visceral, surreal driving experience I have ever had. It remains at the top of my list. I only got the 675LT as (believe it or not) its more usable, especially on road trips with luggage and my wife. If I had garage space I would be straight down to LeMans Coupes for one.

5 speed manual
RHD
2 seater
AC
560 bhp
600 NM
7L NA V8
0-60 - 3.4
Le Mans winning race car for the road
AND a proper continuation NOT a kit car

All for under £200k new (or was a few years ago)

And if a GT40 doesn't float your boat you can also get a Daytona Coupe

I looked into these about a decade ago and spoke to a dealer who said getting German TÜV would be a real challenge (I can't remember the issue, but I think it was classified as a new car and therefore needed to fulfill the emissions stuff etc and I wanted one to be as accurate as possible)
