BMW 228i, no more manual option?

chris82 · 08-19-2015, 10:09 PM

Went to build one of these today, and I see no option for the manual transmission, anyone want to chime in? Is it gone?!

Gone like a 59 Cadillac, all the good things Neva commin back!

It appears to be a mistake. A few members have confirmed they ordered theirs with manual transmission. I hope it is just a mistake and not something you have to order 'off book'.

If you guys want, I can upload the official 2016 2-series option form I received from my dealer. It clearly shows the manual option.

I ordered mine with an automatic, but there was a manual option on the dealer order list.

Yeah OP, it's some kind of mistake. Ordered mine with a manual.
