Question need help with price of MR2

Hi I'd like to know what you think of the price on this local MR2 for sale.

1993 non-turbo
130,000miles
automatic
body and paint is in excellent shape
no rust anywhere
well maintained per seller
1 owner(female)
runs and drives great
no major repairs done
no accidents
interior is in great shape too

price is firm at $6,200

kelly blue book/edmunds values it at $3,700 but from what I understand they don't consider that it's rare and sought-after.

is this lady asking way too much?

also I'm not looking to turbo/mod it but would maybe look into swapping in a 5-speed manual transmision in the future, is this a simple swap? does the rear differential need to be swapped also because of the gear ratios? how about installing a clutch pedal? etc. etc.

I've done an engine swap before (non MR2) replacing the factory engine and dropped a tranny for a clutch change but never changed an auto to a manual before and don't want it to get hairy, just want to know what I'll be getting into if I do at all.

also what do you think of the automatic MR2?

any comments are welcomed.

thx in advance

Rey
