I have a manual Liberty RS Wagon - Aust delivered. They are indeed rare
here in Oz but manual GT wagons seemed to be more common as imports in
NZ when I was looking. Some found their way to Oz as well, particularly
on the east coast. In GT wagons though, the auto was a lot more common
as you said. The Aust Liberty RS sedan and wagon were manual only.
With the Aust RS Wagons, I suspect they could easily have been manual
GTs because they were completely rebadged here as Libertys. The 'RS
TURBO' decals were stickers, not badges, and were an Australian only
thing, judging by the handwritten instructions on where and how to fit
them.
In the photos I found in classifieds or that people sent me, I never saw
a silver IC. They were all black - sedan, wagon ,manual, auto. I was
only looking at the facelifted model however.
