but yeah, complete electronic control is the future of automobiles. it can be a good thing, but it wont be the same.
we can only hope for a niche car manufacturer that appeals to the days of old. Caterham, Lotus... who knows

They finally got iDrive right in the '13 models. When I was test driving them it was like night and day from the previous generation.. but the ridiculous cost is ridiculous in an increasingly competitive market. The base models don't even include real leather seats anymore.
That is just.. wow.
As for a niche player coming out with a track worthy sedan that can also offer modern conveniences.. I dunno man. A sedan ain't coming from the companies you listed though.
Le Sigh.
