650i COUPE MANUAL?

RYANBOZ7 · 04-03-2013, 04:48 PM

Hello,looking at buying a 2012 650i coupe and am wondering it says Bmw makes a true 6spd manual in this car,but I have yet to see one anywhere for sale.I know the auto with manual shift is available,but I just like a true manual,not sportshift,paddles,etc.If I do find one,do you think it'll be hard to sell as many people wouldn't want it in the future or maybe I should just stick with the auto/sportshift manual? Thanks!

In the US, a true 6MT was available only for the MY12 model. When they switched to the new engine in MY13, they dropped the transmission. But good news - you can now get a 6MT in the MY14 M6!!
