The Boxster is a great roadster, of course, but they are impossible to get, ridiculously overpriced, and no wireless CarPlay, which is irksome. Besides, I've always been a BMW guy and love the look of the Z4, so I'm really psyched to be able to have my cake and eat it too!
Until the official announcement is made most salesmen at you dealers will be unaware of the MT. I spoke to my guy last week and he wasn't and he is someone who is usually "in the know". I would plant the seed now if you have a favorite dealer/ salesman so you could be at the beginning of the production run once the MT is made official.
