That's a tough choice. I would keep the SC400 unless the SC300 is really clean or had low miles.

Depends on the condition, but if they were of both equal condition, I'd definitely go 400

After driving automatic for about 3 years. I would definitely take the 97 5spd. Well just cause i finish my conversion and its feels so good to have a manual again.

I would just say its all on preference
