Somewhat agreed and I have a MT M5. I wanted/want a MT sedan and it was an older M3, 335, the upcoming M3, or dare I say an S4?

If I get an M4 to park next to my M5, it would be a very tough decision to get DCT or a 6MT. My M5 is a DCT, but I already have a Fiat Abarth 5MT that fulfills my Manual Tranny fix and boy is it a blast in that little 2,400lbs car! M4 would have to be a dedicated track car for me.

Today I was in Munich and also saw(and heard!) two M3's and one M4 test cars. They really sound good!
I also saw the most i-cars I have ever seen in one day! I think I saw seven i8's(at different times thru out the day) and about five i3's. A few of the i3's did not have any camo on them. Seems to me BMW is cranking up the R&D testing on these cars.

i swear america is the only place left in the world where MT is something to get excited about...
it's a chore, plain and simple.. everywhere bar the USA a MT is just associated with low-end, low-spec cars that the original owner was too tight to check the an AT box on it's now just turning into a cultural thing, and US is the last bastion where it's 'cool' to own a manual... it's distinctly uncool round my neck of the woods that's for sure!

the only reason they should not offer a manual is so that we can stop having DCT vs. MT threads.
or.... if it the other way around? we NEED these threads to continue. |

You are missing the point my friend, no better feeling than taking my M3 out on some windy roads and shifting gears myself.
