I hate how the rest of the world is coupled with UK demand. I have found most cars here to be manuals (small to mid size segment) and considering the fact that BMW has such a huge following for such a small country (size comparison to the U.S), I dont know why BMW would never offer this here. Im not nocking the DCT, but would rather have a manual, and cant even get it specially ordered.
Boo BMW, boo!
