There is an obvious disconnection with the car having an AT. On long drives I feel like the car drives me, not me driving the car. I definitely regret not getting a MT. The paddle shifters are absolute shit, sorry if I offended anyone. The newer models got it right: downshift and upshift paddles should be separated. When I do try and use the paddles I find myself only using the right side. If I shift manually I just use the boot.
Choosing an AT came down to the fact that there is a larger abundance of used ATs than MTs, which means better options, and much cheaper prices. Sad that BMW doesn't reduce MSRP of a new car and charge more for AT.
