I had planned to sell off some of my stash of cars to pay for insurance on the Insight. But a plan is just a list of things that don't happen, so I ended up with an almost free 1990 Sprint 3cyl hatchback with an automatic in it. I have no intention of doing a 5 speed swap in it, but was wondering if any automatic transmissions from newer Sprints/Swifts/Metros that would swap into this car came with an overdrive? Or are these cars doomed to be 3 speeds?
