I understand that you guys love your manuals, but I don't understand dismissing the current M3/4 if they didn't have one. This car is about so much more than just the gearbox.

Absolutely. I would still buy an M3 with the DCT, no doubt. I was pleasantly surprised on my test drive with the performance of the DCT. But as long as they make manuals, I will be buying them. Just my preference.

I am not buying an M3 solely because it's offered in manual transmission. The manual transmission is just the icing. I can eat cake without icing. I promise.
