2025 MINI doing away with stick shift!

Just found out that MINI will no longer a stick shift beginning with the 2025 model. The new car has some nice updates, especially the new color Ocean Breeze. Really bummed about no 6 speed.....

Yea, that really sucks! I'm not too crazy about the design of the rear end either. But agree on the color, pretty cool.

I found out about this about a month ago right and went to the dealership near my work, the salesman told me they only just stopped taking orders for 2024 a few weeks back and those last black manual models were already called for :(

I'm impressed by the apparent lack of a tailpipe. Bad Photoshop, BMW, bad

Only the JCW version will have a (visible) tailpipe.
