That is probably because the new M240 can be had with a manual, which is also the same chassis. Doubt the Z4 will ever see one.

LCI in 04/23.

Can someone explain how this works as this is not clear to me? They produce the current model till the 26th of July 2022 and after that they start producing the LCI model?

Till when can you order the regular model and from which date you need to order to get the LCI model ?"

Its not 26th of July 2022, its July 2026! LCI will come April 2023!

Sorry, I stand corrected. It will be the new M2 which will be available with a manual, so BMW will have a manual option on that same chassis.

The other correction is that the Z4 can be had with a manual - in certain markets, and just the 20i (197 PS), but still.

Will the G87 M2 Competition also be offered in manual (or only base M3)? Hoping Competition will as well since it'll be RWD and also less power than the M3 Comp.

Also, any idea what the HP will be for Comp vs non-Comp? I assume the 455 hp you mention is for competition model.

Bad news for North Americans: the special M4 GT/H (the handbuilt collectible) [detailed in future models thread] doesn't seem to be coming to this side of the ocean.

Noway ��

How's that possible?

What side of the ocean is it going to? And how many?

This is very sad, what does the GT/H stand for? Is this like an e36 M3 GT type of homage?

Fair question, but if I were a betting man, I'd say the manual will only be available on the base model. I think BMW likes the faster acceleration times from the auto with the Competitions. And, arguably, it is better for lap times.

My guess is that the competition will have the M3 base engine which is available with the 6MT.

That's what I'm hoping for. That way I can get the extra power from the factory and won't have to individually option a lot of the things that would come with the comp. Oh well, we'll wait and see but I really am not expecting the manual to be offered on the comp given how things are trending

If that makes it to production that would be a nice canvass for a track car!

Perhaps, but not if it weighs over 3,700lbs…
