In a way the 6MT is cooler, but I am using this thing as my daily driver...I'm worried that I'll hate it maybe 6 to 12 months down the line. I figured this kind of switch would be insanely expensive.
I commuted a Z4m 6MT through Washington DC rush hour traffic for over a year. Put 40k on that car actually... Modulation of the clutch was not bad in stop and go, I did have a cramp or 2 every now and then, when I got the M3 I opted for the 6MT... I figured the more manual non-computer controlled stuff I have, the less prone for failures.
