To each their own; I laugh whenever people try to imply that people who want/drive an automatic are somehow unable to drive a manual or don't know how to do it properly.
Yes, it's too bad you no longer have the choice. I still have several manual transmission vehicles and yeah, I can drive (I've raced motorcycles since 1982).....but I would have gotten the ZF in the Z4 even if they offered a 6 spd; it's a fabulous tranny and I find the versatility of going between full sport paddle mode and regular auto mode to be very appealing. YMMV
