On May 29, 2022, OpenRoad Auto Group (OpenRoad) joined 615 fellow community, business, and philanthropic leaders to support BC Children’s Foundation’s 25th Annual For Children We Care Gala.

It’s clear whether you’re looking for a new SUV, truck, sedan, or 2-door coupes and convertibles, there’s still a solid selection of new manual transmission vehicles for sale today. Here’s a list of Raymond’s 5 picks for brand new vehicles with manual transmissions available at an OpenRoad dealership near you.
Available now at BMW Langley, the remarkable 2020 M850i XDrive Gran Coupe. A true pinnacle of BMW engineering combining the legendary driving performance and signature flair of luxury synonymous with BMW.
The 2020 BMW Z4 and 2019 8 Series were two of the handful of newly redesigned BMW vehicles at the recent two-day BMW Driving Experience event at the Vancouver Island Motorsports Circuit.
What’s better in the spring and summer months than cruising along one of the Lower Mainland’s great roads, sans top? The only caveat is the amount of rainfall we get — that’s where hardtop convertibles come in. Roof down for wind in your hair; up and it’s like you’re riding in any other vehicle. Here are three of OpenRoad’s favourite examples.
This SLK-successor has already been around for a little bit but the luxury roadster is still as good as ever. The electrohydraulic vario-roof can be closed in approximately 20 seconds, even while the car is moving at speeds of up to 40 km/h hour. There’s also a panoramic glass option with MAGIC SKY CONTROL allowing the unit to be lightened or darkened via a simple button press.
There are two flavours of the SLC: the 300, which has a 2.0-litre four-cylinder engine under the hood, and the AMG 43 boasting a 3.0-litre twin-turbocharged V6 producing 362 horsepower and 384 lb-ft of torque. Both are mated to 9G-TRONIC nine-speed automatic transmission.
The fourth generation Mazda MX-5 debuted in 2016 to great fanfare, enthusiasts hungry for another rear-wheel drive, open-air product from the Japanese manufacturer. One year later, the RF arrived, providing the same fun only with the addition of a power retractable hardtop. When closed, the PHRT lends the vehicle a stunning fastback look. In the stowed position, cargo capacity remains the same as the standard variant.
Powertrain specs are unchanged as well, consisting of a 155-horsepower 2.0-litre SKYACTIV-G four cylinder mated to either a SKYACTIV-MT six-speed manual transmission or six-speed automatic.
Featuring a three-piece hardtop with full noise-absorbing headliner and integrated LED lighting, BMW has ensured the convertible version of the 4 Series is no less luxurious than any other model. The absence of a B pillar creates a clean silhouette, and a standard load/unload assistance function pivots the folded roof in the trunk upwards if extra storage is required.
Buyers have the choice of BMW TwinPower Turbo motors, one a 2.0-litre four cylinder, the other a 3.0-litre straight six. Protip: bundle in the M Performance Power & Sound Kit that includes a high-flow valve controlled exhaust generating aural bliss at full throttle in Sport and Sport+ dynamic driving modes.
The significant refresh also includes big changes to both the exterior and interior.
