Food for thought, there are 82 M3s (F80s) for sale, only 2 of them are manual.
There are 179 M4s for sale ATM, 13 of them are manual.
Manual is dying? people are not buying, especially when the autos are delivering so much more...."performance" when compared.^
Personally, as much as i love manuals....i think they suit the last get M cars much better (the NA engines), something about shifting at 8K+ rpms yourself is much more satisfying, it suited the car. New gen....manuals feel and even sound a bit off.

Very valid points and as much as our hearts want to disagree these are great points. Half of the fun of an MT is REVVING out THEN changing gears. That is diminished with turbo engines, especially the F80 M3/M4 that has SO much power low down you don't need to go past 4k RPM
