I think this generation vs the previous is a bit different. ZCP used to be just an option package that some buyers/dealers making orders may have not even known about. Now it's offered as a separate model and advertised much differently.
While that is true, it's silly to have to get an aftermarket tune on a 70k+ car (and potentially void your warranty in the process) when BMW could've simply offered the car with the extra hp/tq to begin with.

The manual transmission cannot handle the power and torque. They have said so expressly. They gave the power they determined the transmission could bear safely and without long-term reliability issues.
This entire thread is by far the worst thing this forum has seen since the G8x debuted, and I hate that it keeps getting resurrected and I allow myself to have the same argument over and over again.
They're killing the 6MT....by offering it for sale...
