I agree with you. However, if next gen M3/M4 is going AWD, I have my doubts about the manual transmission.

Looking at his and BMW M3 CRT older posts, I doubt they are pulling the information out of their asses. They talked about this model before those photos were posted. I was very skeptical when they said they saw the M3 CS badge since pre-production cars do not run around with the badges. However, after seeing the builtsheets I have no doubt about their claims.
