I guess I don’t fit their paradigm, but I want it all and still want it with a manual. I could’ve dealt with the new nose on the M3 and “downgraded”, but not when the manual means no AWD and no Competition pack and no one can seem to develop remote start with 3 pedals. AWD manual with any sports orientation at all is down to what Subaru?
Agree. But then the take rate for manuals will be lower, giving BMW a chance to say "the take rate is lower. So we're not making them anymore"

For AWD and a stick, I'm afraid you'd have to go back in time.
