Stupid a$$ testers.. After 3 weeks of use people who drove manualz say they will never go back...
Also the shifts in S6 (fastest mode) is .08 seconds = 8ms

Originally posted by drizzt81 well, 10ms for a shift is prolly too fast for anyone to notice. .damn schweet too anyhow, i am still a manual fan.. someone in a german newspaper wrote that he really loves the SMG, but the problem is that he is missing the clutching/ shifting part of the car. He was beyond impressed with the speed of the shifting action and how nice the car drove and totally loved it, but he was missing the 'old' feeling of being able to use his left foot. Assuming that i had the amount of money needed to buy that car and would not live in this shitty neighborhood, I think i would have the hardest time deciding.. i really need to try that SMG stuff though.. might be fun.. on the other hand i love using my left foot for shifting.. well i am just a stick shit whore.. my technique is awesome too (hear that TG?!?! )

um, in my book .08s = 80 ms.. milli = 1/1000
.08s = 8 centi-seconds (not an SI unit!!)

for all i know, there is nothing that comes close to the m3.. well apart form F1 cars, but thay are not really 'street-proof' hehehe

as i said b4, i am sure that i would like it, but there is something nostalgic about pushing the clutch and all
