hello all, I'm faced with the choice of buying either a '99 Maxima (auto-trans) with 250k miles for $2900 or a '97 Maxima (manual-trans) with 150k miles for $1900. both have a loaded interior and appear to drive very well. the '99 is actually very smooth to be honest. the manual seems good too, but I haven't driven a manual on a regular basis since i was in HS and freshman year of college ('92 - '93).

i'd like to know what are the common issues with these vehicles, especially if they are expensive.

also, are there problems with the clutch and i heard that there are some advantages of having the manual trans over the automatic...how true is that?
