Quadrofoglio I'm guessing? No MT option there, that's one reason to stick with the G80 (or CT4V Blackwing) if you're into that sort of thing, and I'm sure BMW interior materials are STILL better than Cadillac's despite years of complaints against the caddy. They just can't seem to get it.

I hated both the G80 and the F90. Too big, bulky and heavy. The F10 was that too but it did not break your ribs pretending to be a sports car like the F90 does, hence why the M550 is actually the equivalent to the F10 M5, .ie a proper GT car and not a frankenstein that is neither a GT, nor a family car, nor a sports car.

Not a BMW but speaking of nostalgia and not making 'em like they used to, Jason Cammisa's latest video has an excellent retrospective on the Land Cruiser:
