Will the G87 M2 Competition also be offered in manual (or only base M3)? Hoping Competition will as well since it'll be RWD and also less power than the M3 Comp.

Also, any idea what the HP will be for Comp vs non-Comp? I assume the 455 hp you mention is for competition model.
Fair question, but if I were a betting man, I'd say the manual will only be available on the base model. I think BMW likes the faster acceleration times from the auto with the Competitions. And, arguably, it is better for lap times.
My guess is that the competition will have the M3 base engine which is available with the 6MT.
That's what I'm hoping for. That way I can get the extra power from the factory and won't have to individually option a lot of the things that would come with the comp. Oh well, we'll wait and see but I really am not expecting the manual to be offered on the comp given how things are trending
