I'm pretty sure Suzuki is the only one that can answer that definitively, but as far as I can tell, it was only for the 2011 model year. The guy who posted his SLS 6MT in the gallery and videos sub-forum is the only one I've seen outside of magazine/online reviews for that year...and I've never seen one pop up for sale in my months of nationwide searching. (autotrader, cars.com, carsdirect, carguru.com etc..)

Not alot. I would bet that 5% or less would have sold as the SLS MT.

Soo about less than 900 probably a lot fewer I would assume. Give it six to ten yrs it'll be a collector and probably worth double what its worth now( depending on suzuki's re-entry to the us)

Another SLS sport 6 speed owner here. I've been very happy with the car so far!

Just keep the numbers matched and in 20 years we'll be looking for you at Barrett Jackson :)

Yeah, seal it up and store it in a climate controlled garage. 20 years from now you'll be able to get list price for it, $28,000 or so. Of course minimum wage jobs will be paying $30,000 a year by then, so that amount will be worth very little. Your grocery bill will be more than that for the year.

don't think you will have a real collector, but it might be a bit of a cult car.

I have a 2005 92x aero that I use as a DD and WRXs are still worth more with the same mileage even though there are only around 4000 aeros ever to hit the road and probably not much more than half of that still running given the number of people that wrap them around trees.

I definitely think more of a cult car than a collector. As in not a lot of people will want one (or know what it is for that matter), but the amount of those who do will number greater than the few available examples, driving price up above something like a 6-spd GTS.
