One only needs to read the forums to observe that BMW attracts a different type of buyer now (unfortunately for the BMW enthusiasts).

Is Porsche launching a new manual GT4 as a special non-profit project for enthusiasts? Why did BMW decide to offer the M2 CS with a manual?

Over the last five years, I have had many conversations with other F80 owners, "what made you get the F80"....."It was the only car I could find with four doors and a manual"......there is a large market that people take for granted. Many who buy X cars for their spouse.
Read above.

Porsche is not BMW. Porsche has a different business model.
