If I need a 6MT keeper, there’s always the final year car (or special edition a la F87 CS).
My desire for a manual has not waned and that will continue so long as I am healthy and my left knee/leg have little to no issues.

A reminder for some here that the likelihood that a special edition of a G87 will be offered with a manual is rather slim. The current CS and CSL are living proof of that. Just something to keep in mind.
