Well..., that was a real hit to the feels.
No. People keep saying "Oh Billup was so cool, he did this and that", and if I changed my name to that, I'd just be even more expected to live up to his stature, and that sounds exhausting. |

Obviously... Why else would Anna run back to Finland and then buy a place with obviously zero intention of moving back? M3/M4's are only like triple the price there too... Finland - the land of dreams...

Yep, basically sums up the manual transmission being standard, as it is "standard" for a reason. Second one always gets me LOL.

jtodd_fl Biorin SMG and DCT FTW!!
Once you've gone SMG and DCT you never go back. Keep the manual transmissions. Verbiage What's next? Are you going to try to convince me that I should get a car that needs a hand crank to start? You know what's next... |

I've had both - DCT and 6mt... Also had plenty of seat time in e46 and e60 with smg... The e60 had dinan stage 3 and paired to that smg - people have gotten motion sickness in that car... Side note - start up in garage, says 247 miles to empty, coast out of garage with foot off the gas completely, down the driveway, and it would say 245 miles to empty lol) anyways back to the transmissions...
SMG in the e60 was terrible... Lots of problems as well... SMG-II for the e46 was vastly improved, but still was a love it or hate it type thing and still jerky... Much better suited for the track as opposed to surface streets (IMO)... Fast forward to e9x era and the DCT comes out... Nothing negative to say about it, let's be honest, who didn't get at least semi addicted to the throttle blipping during downshifts? My car was always in full M mode and always in "manual" mode with the shift knob... The 6mt in e9x left some to be desired and was thankful I didn't order it that way... Having driven the f8x numerous times, I wasn't in love with it like I was my e92... Ended up pulling the trigger anyways but in 6mt... Hoping to get the feeling back, but can't get over the hydraulic steering feel so not too optimistic... Getrag tranny is flipping awesome... Albeit, kind of a lazy / dummy proof tranny when it's not in the highest transmission setting, but throws are decent, clutch feel not too heavy and remotely pleasant in traffic... Debating ordering another one... But with DCT and Comp Pack... I miss being able to just hop in the car and cruise if I want, instead of being on red alert at all times... My two cents - love both transmissions but more inclined to do DCT at this point... Would love to have both ideally... |

Hopefully next gen dumbs down the electronic assist, some. That and the lack of composure in gaining traction seem to be extreme points of contention with this car.

The day BMW makes M3/4s exclusively DCT is the day you'll find me driving a Corvette or GT350.

I would have loved a GT350R, but an F80 serves my practicality needs better as a 4 door. They're also basically as common as Corollas, compared to the exclusivity of the GT350's. Hopefully I can acquire one in a couple years' time. EDIT: They're also much, much quieter. Like a vacuum compared to....a garbage disposal.
