How is it a surprise to anyone that they aren't offering that combo?

well they did sell a 1-series coupe and now 2-series coupe.....even though they don't really sell. a total 'niche' car with minimal marketable value compared to the A3 and CLA. I'd say BMW is the ONLY marque out of those 3 who still offer MTs on at least their RWD variants. It's a shame that the 435i Gran Coupe doesn't come with an MT, even though it's RWD.
oh and there is no 'xi' variant of the 435 gran coupe....not yet at least.
