T-5R 850

I'm interested in replacing our 89 245 (220K+ miles) with a T-5R and there are a few things I'd like to know.

Were they available with manual transmissions? I've looked through the autotrader and have only found automatics. I prefer a five spd.

Are parts widely available and at a reasonable cost? I've been into BMWs and 240s for years, both of which have good sources for discounted parts.

Thanks

Ron
