I don't like paddle shifters either. The M3 with a 6sp would've probably been near the top of my list, I loved the braking and handling, Good engine, not a lot of torque but good RPM range.

But the damned SMG trans was total garbage!
my business partner has a M3 convertible with the SMG - and he's trying to talk himself into liking it for the last 3 years

but yeah, that transmission really sucks
