Not sure where you guys are located but I had no problem finding 2014's in stock. Last week I saw a decent amount of manual sports when I was shopping. But "Nor-Cal" is pretty vast so your location might be different.
I'm in San Jose. I didn't have problems finding a manual.....I just had problems getting a low price for one. One of the dealers here had an ok price, but they didn't have the color I wanted. I ended up buying one from Fremont Mazda who had the best price by a good margin.
