patience will pay off in the end. Like stated above, you gotta look at it everyday. Wait it out and get the one you really want. Make sure you wont get tired of a 6 either.

I was in the same position earlier this year. I was determined to find a slightly used Grabber Orange v6 with a stick. I ultimately found success with an online ford dealership inventory search. I had to drive all the way to Cleveland to pick it up -- totally worth it.

When you do find your perfect mustang, make sure you bargain your *** off. I ended up knocking the price down $3,000 from what the dealership wanted.

Yeah it is pretty hard to find a manual V6, at least around here. Dont compromise on the color, the other stuff can be changed later for the most part. Just find a silver manual and mod it to your likings

I started looking in 05 and did not find what I wanted until 07.
And then I didnt get the color I wanted (VistaBlue). I now wish
I had waited as long as it took to find the VistaBlue with the M/T
and no added options. I finally found a RedFire 07 for $17,087 but
still wish it was VistaBlue. Dont get hasty, wait, wait, wait.
Its very hard to change colors of vehicles....

When you say "yellow", do you mean Screaming Yellow? Yellow is a decent looking color and adding a black race stripe on top of the car would really set it off! :-)
You don't see too many Yellow Stangs out on the streets here in GA. However, I do see a lot of Black, Silver, White and Maroon ones.
Good luck with your decision!

I didn't even consider a different color until today when I saw a beautiful yellow 2006 with only 20,000 miles. And I started thinking about how cool it would look with boss graphics and a GT grill and rims. What's your opinion on the yellow bosses? Should I pick up the yellow one which is everything I want (v6, low miles, manual transmission) and make it a boss or just wait for a silver one to pop up?
