One more thing. I'm a definitely skeptical about this car only coming on MT. I just don't see the logic on BMW's end. Why limit your sales to 10-20% of it's potential. I estimate that figure based on a rough ratio of MT vs. AT sales on the US. On average BMW sells 4 AT cars for every 5 cars sold. I personally do t care as I am a diehard MT driver. Remember when the 335is was announced and almost everyone was convinced that it was only going to be available in DCT because of some baseless rumor? I think that is happening again and believe that they will offer a DCT version.
