Good to know.  I would love to find a 5 speed XJ, but I don't see that many.  I do about 150 miles a week, and with my Jetta that was about 5 gallons of gas.  With a XJ/ZJ it would be about 7-8 gallonbs of gas.  Thats about $8 more a week, but I can also tow my utility trailer, make dump runs, and have 4wd when I have to get to/home from work in the snow.

i average about 200 miles a day.  so i need the 4cyl import.  look for an xj with a 5 speed but watch out for the pegout trans.  they're junk.  you'll know it because it uses a hydraulic throwout bearing as apposed to an external slave cyl.

I say go w/ an Aspire with the 5spd, you are looking at the upper 40s.
