The 1M, Cayman GT4, Boxster Spyder and Shelby GT350 have at least in common that they're manual only. And now also Alfa Romeo will offer a manual version for the Giulia (apart from an automatic).
Manual transmission as statement. For example Porsche marketing speaks about
"make changing gear as emotional as it is perfect, for unfiltered driving enjoyment."
BMW offers the M2 with either manual transmission or the optional double-clutch transmission (
M-DCT Drivelogic).
So what would you prefer for the M2: manual or DCT ?
