    Well, they had manual in the executive, so i don't see why the berlina couldn't have had it a 'stock option'.

    Most are white because they are the cheapest you can buy. From new the cheapest was a white (being a base colour, not a mettalic), manual exec.

    they would only have to order the same stuff and not have to worry about manual gear as autos are more popular 4 commodores .
