    "They're doing manual transmissions, they must get it" YES! Thank goodness. Autos always outsell manuals and will only continue to outperform them but please just give us enthusiasts the option. Even the Golf GTI is losing the manual option next year..

      If you're not interested in manuals, don't buy. It's not like they're ditching the automatics in favor of manuals, is it? The reason people rave about manuals is because auto-makers have DITCHED manuals in favor of automatics.

    Too much BS for just saying: Yeah, we've got a German competitor, but we lack the luxury they offer, i.e: no 4 zone climate, no power trunklid, no AWD, not enough space for back seat passengers, etc etc.... There, took me 45 sec to conclude a 10 min vid!

      I have bmw and GM sport sedans and I like them all , yet I don’t want any of my sedans AWD, never use much of 2 way climate let alone 4 way, power trunk lids? How lazy are we and what will happen when it breaks after couple years … and as much as tad nicer interior on the bmw is after 50k miles the “less” luxurious interior holds up much better
