The gods above and below certainly know that the hatchback would be convenient at Costco...

But driving them, it's been clear on every SUV drive that I've taken that they aren't for me...especially considering my eventual realization that I absolutely had to go back to a manual while I still could.
Yes! All of the above for me too.

If we could get an M3 Touring/Wagon with a Manual is the US, I would be all over that. It wouldn't look as good as the Sedan IMO, but it would be the perfect allrounder. But I don't even think they are offering that as a Manual in Europe, so it is just a hypothetical that will never happen...

(I will stick with the M3 Manual and maybe consider an X5 or X7 for my wife in 2023.)
