I like the idea of an M-DCT, but if it only came with a manual would only be bringing M back to its roots, which is what I think the 1 M Coupe is all about, minus the fact that it is most definitely going to be a forced induction motor, I think a supercharged 3.0L would have personally been more interesting. I don't know how to drive manual, except for a few days driving Mercedes buses out in Afghanistan, but I tell you what, I wanted to drive manual now after that little experience and though it would be hard, I'd learn to drive it if it were the only option for the 1M Coupe, or current E9X M3s.
