I'm not going DCT, though. My current M3 is an SMG and I badly miss the driving a real stick-shift. More than anything, I'm looking forward to a clutch and a six-speed.
My buddy who a big manual guy just sold his 09 ///M with DTC. He missed the manual to much.

Although he was faster at the track daily driving was when he wish he would have a manual.

He buying a 2012 manual. .

My advice is try driving both with a buddy or dealer and pick what you like the most.
