well, I love making educated guesses on what BMW will do for upcoming models, but this one subject really has me stumped. I'd like to ask the audience on this one

Do you guys think the next M3 will be SMG only, or SMG with traditional 6-speed as an option ?

I really hope the latter so that us older thinkers can still have a 6-speed, I know its slower and more dangerous, but I just like being involved with the car at that level.
