Before anyone gets butt-hurt from my comment, I took my Drivers Test at 17 in a manual. My first 4-5 cars were manual. But in this day and age, it really is too cumbersome and a real PITA especially in traffic. Unless you have some Classic Car or Race Car that you actually RACE, there's simply no need for a manual. These DCT and Auto-Manuals are so much sweeter. |
Really is up to your preference. All my cars at the moment are auto, and all are an absolute BORE to drive. I've driven many DCTs, most recently a Z4 35is, and found it very dull. I'm itching to hop back into a stick. Many people on this board, including myself, appreciate the fact that BMW still offers the enthusiast tranny on the M3 despite low take rates. But come to think of it, all the past C AMGs (C36, C43, C32, C55, C63) all exclusively had autos. Just thought an MT would be a welcome option.
