Yes, the
Ford
Mustang is available with 6-speed manual transmission. However, the most powerful Mustangs—the ShelbyGT350 and Shelby GT500—are only available with an automatic transmission.
Manual transmissions are becoming rarer across the auto industry. Only two trucks are left that offer manual transmission: the
Toyota
Tacoma and the
Jeep
Gladiator.
