Many owners, including myself, have to learn to adjust our driving style with this tranny. I have a 135i also with a 6 MT and it is so much easier to drive. The M3 tranny forces you to pay attention; maybe that's what's fun about this tranny, it makes you feel like you are really, really driving.

I would consider a SSK. Makes a world of difference.
