Err, 90% of UK cars ARE MT. Would be a huge bloody club over here.

In the UK Autos are for old people with athritis. Fancy new 'DSG' style boxes are just sports Autos for old people in a rush and people who cant change gear properly IMO.

Does this mean you want to join the club? This isn't restricted to US members. If so, please post pic of your shifter!

Lets set aside race and countries, this is strictly 6MT Club, for all M3 and future M3 owners!!!!!!!!! And remember owning a BMW gets you into a club, owning an M is a culture.

OK T-Bone, as the honorary President (that's with a capital P), I declare you an honorary member! If you are nice, we'll make you an honorary board member. You are in charge of buying the beer for the club meets. I suspect South would prefer German beer.

Cool thanks! Do I get a t-shirt or a badge or anything?

Are you guys holding the 3rd to 6th or 4th to 6th classes? I need to do some training for that

No, no, this is all meant to be very subtle. Like a secret society or something.

That we can help you with.

South, please update the roster to reflect T-Bone's honorary member status.

Agreed that one shouldn't automatically be in this club. So only people who want to be added.
Not so sure about your second point. Don't you want me to be in this club?

Absolutely. This club is for people who love, like and long for the 6MT M3. This club is not the place to bash DCT cars or their owners.

Done.

i dont know how to simplify my question, but do you have a "vision" statement lol

Not sure how I ended up as the honarary president either since I don't even own a M3 yet. This is not about me; I honestly just want to serve the people (and work closely with GregW to siphon money from them via legitimate sounding fund raisers)! But, I don't really have a vision statement.

Yes, E and myself had the idea to found the 6MT club. And yes, Swamp's desire for DCT might have played a role initially.

I started this thread to evolve this club. So keep the ideas coming, guys. A vision statement would be nice.

Best regards, south

Yes, that's how it is!

Wow, our honorary President out of control already!?

I could imagine T-Bone being something like a honorary member, but this would mean he had to stop making any deprecative/cynical comments towards 6MT (owners) and show respect. Guess that's not what he wants...

Best regards, south

E and you should be listed as "Founding Members". I figured T-Bone could make up for his position by bringing the beer; we are not who we are without the people are not alike!

Post of a pic of your damn stick or pedals or something S!
