Weight savings are minimal in as well (about 1-2%)

if you want to shift use a paddle...
Stop making stuff up... In America the M2 has a 50% take rate on manuals and the rate on M3/M4 while not as high is still up there.
Every M3/M4 I owned was manual.

Please BMW don't take it away.

I grow up with manual and it's so much more fun and engaging to drive.

I just want to have MT and AWD
Same...never had an AT or DCT on an M car. Have DCT on my Audi 😜
