The neatest thing about my M3 is that it's a hardtop , and with a touch of a button it's a convertible! Now that's trick!
Sounds excellent.... enjoy!

Did you get the twin clutch? Drove my friend's M3 with the new tranny....loved it......so much better than the SMG..

Nope,I'm a rower.

If I got the DSG my wife would be on it in a heartbeat.

I have driven the DSG and is an amazing drive. After our 750li lease is up in a few months we may to an M3 Cpe.

The AMG is remarkable. Its faster than the M. Comfort is about the same but the Seats are
better in the AMG. Not to mention 133 more ft lbs of torque. Its easy to break loose the tires
and I never did that in the GT3 except when I went off the track in my 996
