Should Our BMW M2 Longtermer Be A Manual, Or An Automatic?
This September, a BMW M2 will be joining TeamCT's long-term test fleet. But what kind of gearbox should it have? We want you to help us decide!
Recently, we enjoyed a very entertaining week with a BMW M2, which saw us bomb down the autobahn to the Nurburgring N24 and go for a lap of the Nordschleife. Since we’re greedy, we still wanted more time with the M2, and fortunately, we’ve been granted our wish: this September a BMW M2 will be joining Car Throttle’s long-term test fleet, alongside ‘our’ Honda Civic Type R and another awesome car which is set to arrive in the coming weeks.
Whatever happens the M2 will be a Long Beach Blue example, but we have been given a choice of transmissions: the six-speed manual, or the seven-speed dual-clutch. To help us make our decision, we want to know what kind of M2 you’d rather see. Get voting!

If only CT had some kind of tool to count votes in a poll 😐
As much as I’d like to vote manual, I honestly think automatic is becoming a lot more fun to drive and gives you so much more control over the car.
Are people still conditioned to automatics being simply whack it in D and that’s it?
Manuel Neuer.. wait, no. Get a Manual!
Considering your doing a test, i think you should go for the DSG, we all know the manual is going to be good for reliability and be abit more engaging, so why not see how good the DSG box is instead?
I want to see the automatic transmission reliability, I know it’s a very good transmission but im afraid of the reliability issues on the long term
you’ve done manual for the mx-5 and a hell of a lot of other cars… why not give auto a try?
DCT as 80% of customers will be buying it, but I’d say get a manual to see if it’s still worth it nowadays vs the DCT
DCT!
Manual.
