How rare is JCW CM w/ manual transmission?

I picked up a JCW clubman stick earlier this year w/o the CPO cost and very happy with it since then.
The CM dealer is asking $2500 over book value, $1700 being CPO until 2019 and another $800 for doc fee!

How rare is manual JCW countryman? Is it really worth the extra $2500?
My gut is telling me no, but the color is perfect....dilemma, dilemma.

Not very rare and the resale value is not very good either.

Early CM had issues with the All4 stressing the manual trans, keep that in mind.

Would you define 2014+ model year as early?

I purchased my JCW Countyman new and made it a stage 3 the first week of ownership. The clutch lasted 18K, but I drove it very aggressive everyday. I swapped out the clutch for one of my stage 3 Kevlar clutches with out issues even with my Big Turbo Kit
