[MBZ] C230 manual

Sort of interested in this. I had been under the impression that MBUSA had not imported manual transmissions since the 1970s. But on the one photo that shows the driver's footwell, I don't see a clutch pedal, so is this what it claims to be? Shifter looks like a manual though.

I am very disappointed. The listing pictures did not show the 8,000 gallon tanker truck you need to follow the car everywhere you drive it. Owned one of them that I took on a trade back during the Oil Embargo era [first one]. It got a whopping 6 miles to the gallon. I sold it as quickly as I found
