Very intriguing when comparing what direction Tesla and BMW are going with the cars. People say they would never buy an electric vehicle cuz of the lack of sound and no manual transmission.
For me:
1. I'd rather have no sound than the garbage (and fake) noise the twin turbo inline 6's BMW is putting out.
2. We're not even sure the G8X will be available with a true manual transmission.
3. I don't track my car so the battery overheating on a track is a moot point for me. Plus, I already have a manual E92 M3 if I really wanted to have fun on a track.
This is just me, though. Your situation may be different.
