Haha I guess that might still be true relative to the other 2 luxury German marques. A lot of sporty Audi and MB-AMG models don't even have a manual option anymore since people hardly bought them.

At least with the next-gen 86, it will definitely be offered with a manual since the take rate was so high on the first-gens.
