While many manufacturers are no longer offering MTs Jaguar is going in the other direction and has announced that the previously AT only F-Type will be available with an MT.

I suspect that the take rate for MTs on the M cars will continue to decline but BMW will continue to offer then until it drops to almost zero, Offering the M3/4 with an MT is good PR for BMW even if it is not particularly profitable,
