I can see this is the regular 3 or 4 series cars, but on M cars? I think its a mistake.

There's a cost to having the option and having more than one process on the assembly line
I also suspect that they would prefer to eliminate the MT because it complicates things for a big push for autonomous driving options
I dont want autonomous driving options or the cost associated with it personally
I want a car.....the ultimate driving experience.....not the ultimate chauffuer experience
