Lots of people track M3s, Ferraris, Porsches, etc. competitively and more and more are auto-manuals. Look around this Forum and you'll see lots of track discussions.
Like you, I'm afraid that manual transmissions will be impossible to find on performance cars in the near future. Normally aspirated V8s may get really hard to find also. Those two are small reasons for me going with the M3.
As for Porsche being a logical move up from an M3, I covet the GT3, but not much else in their line. They make fine cars, but their supremacy is gone in most price categories. I love going to Porsche club events and winning in a non-Porsche car... always great fun.
