Exactly why I leased mine, lol. I would totally switch to the new Z4 if it only came with a manual. I can take that its less of a driver's car, but I really just want a Z4 M40i w/ a 6-speed, I don't care how good the auto is, the engagement of a manual is what I love, sadly, we are a small group of people these days
