Where available, manuals are no cost options in BMWs and it's been that way for a long time. My 6MT M235 was no more than a 8AT AND I deleted the moonroof too which I didn't get any money back for that. In the end, I'll get way more money for my 6MT, no moonroof, LSD equipped M235 than the garden variety 8AT and moonroof equipped M235s the vast majority have. Manuals will ALWAYS command a higher resale in sporty cars compared to the autos, even if the autos are faster/quicker. I wanted my M235 to be the lightest, most connected, version of the car I could get. It weighs over 300lbs less than a comparatively equipped M235x. That's huge.
