i need help advice

i can see where you're coming from, but that is settling. that's your personal choice. Odds are i won't do it for the reasons you list, but i mean either way i will get out of this car early and loose money to drive a car that i won't be settling for

Yeah I settled for this Civic to get me by (because my Trailblazer is losing like half a quart for every 1,000 miles driven and runs a little hot so it was time to take it out of daily driver duty) till I can save up enough money to get a C7 vette, now that car I will be more picky about when it comes to color.

the c7 or c8? i know the c8 has a whole lot of options to choose from lol

but yea i wanted this car to be my daily driver, i live 5 mins from where i work, so a manual transmission saves me some money on gas. but ultimately this was just a question of if it is possible to do that

No it doesn't. You are living in the past. Automatic transmissions are more economical than manuals. You get worse gas mileage with the manual. Not a reason to trade cars.

C7, not the C8, thing looks like a Ferrari not a vette, I buy used to save money.

googled it, the 6 speed gets like 2 MPG better in the EPA highway rating, same city mileage though, so for a short drive like the OP has probably wouldn't notice any difference in fuel mileage and even then with that low a mileage being driven the fuel savings would never come close enough to justify the cost of the switch.
