But even using your numbers from the poll respondents, the 6MT is still 1.3x more likely to experience a SCH. IMO, saying that DCT are more prone to suffer a SCH is really what is bunk.

^ This, albeit spinning the crank hub is not "that easy" .

I am not sure what point you are trying to make ...

It's clear that there is a price premium for manual 4 doors in the California market for M3/M4 - someone on this thread already said they shipped a car to California from the east coast due to this. |

Well this is an international board right? And per your numbers there are 5.4x more DCT owners than 6-speed - except, wait, are there more people with 6-speeds on this board than DCT? What would that do to your numbers?
Go get the book Freakanomics - eye opening.

I'll try to clarify mine: There is no statistical evidence that demonstrates either transmission to be more prone to the SCH issue. IMO, it solely related to the S55 engine itself.

Updated the original post with pandemic pricing in mind: the premium is now $5,600 in the California area, from cheapest to cheapest.

manual, cloth, comp, individual, never tuned and 4k miles on the odometer . Cmon 2SNAILS your in the same boat as I.
Very interesting post as I believe in some truth to this thread but also a little too early to tell. The F80 platform in general was overproduced. As time goes on we will have a harder time finding a stock non abused f80 and throwing in a manual to the equation will make it even harder. That’s when we will see premiums for manuals.

Granted the F83 is at the bottom for enthusiasts, but ALL of the least expensive ones I was looking at were 6MT.
I had manuals for several cars (Accord, Integra, WRX, S2000) and while it was fun to row the gears, it's a grind for daily drivers, and automatics are SO good now that manuals are really just for the 5-10% that are hard core enthusiasts. |

If you still didn't believe there was a premium, this will. The cheapest F80 6MT M3 across America on Autotrader is $38,490. And that's with this economy and 20% unemployment.
June 5, 2020 Data: The cheapest 6MT M3 500 miles from San Francisco is $43,439. The cheapest DCT/6MT M3/M4 500 miles from San Francisco is $29,995. The cheapest 6MT M3 across America is $38,490. |
