It's really a shame. I feel that most "fun-to-drive" cars, including our fbodies, should have been exclusively offered in only Standard--with a small percentage of automatics. But, when it comes down to it, buyer demand is what drives manufacturers' decisions. The majority of people just don't care for it anymore.
When I was looking for a LS1, the price difference between equal mileage 4L60E & T56 cars were in the thousands, making a T56 unattainable with my budget.
