After 30 years of BMW ownership and 3 of 4 cars bought new, I doubt BMW will get my new business anytime soon. But...

I think BMW should follow Ford and GM's formula and build a modern-replica of the E30. NA straight 6, manual trans, rear drive. 3,000 pounds. Tall greenhouse. No idrive or effing dash screen. And I'm in.

A manual transmission can be set to "comfort", "sport", and "track" modes simply by the technique and speed at which you shift it; it doesn't need "modes", modes are for manumatics that try to behave like a real 3-pedal manual transmission. If you can money-shift it, it's a manual transmission. "Yeah, but NO ONE puts an automatic trans shift knob on a manual transmission."
