Hi and welcome to the forum.

Nope, you got the right area and there is no such thing as a stupid question, I suspect your question does not have a straight forward answer either but it's good that you found the info you were looking for.

Correct me if I’m wrong but I’m pretty sure anything vt and onwards never came out in a manual Calais

I think you are right but then you could go into a Holden stealership and fairly much order any combination as long as it was available on other models. About the only manual option that did not exist was a manual behind the L67. Other models had manual V6 and V8 options so in theory you could customise your order.

Pretty sure no Calais was ever released with a manual or optioned with one.

I can confirm I ordered my VXII Calais v8 from the factory and there was no option for a manual.

Calais with manual option was quietly deleted in VP series. So VP series II onwards, Calais were auto only
