Yes, the G8X still comes with a manual. But imagine if the M5 came with a manual?
Caddy's making one last stand with a high-performance full size sedan (650+ hp) with a manual.
Likely the last manufacturer to produce such a vehicle.
And if you're "old" powertrain produces 650+ hp, no need to use an updated powertrain just for the sake of change.
Hec, if I could get an M2 today with the E9X V8, I'd be all over it.
