Dont know what the worry is, I have just bought an M3 conv SMG and its just had its first service and I find the SMG ideal for driving in London, auto mode first easy setting, I get 25mpg commuting and when I want I flip the lever to manual or simply ding the paddles on the steering wheel and its in manual at stage 5/6 and an awesome racer. The gearchange is smooth in auto mode, a lot more responsive in sport setting for getting in and out of junctions/roundabouts but a bit fierce full throttle in manual at the extreme setting but that just adds to the fun. I have been a BMW owner for a while and this is the first M3, wanting a bit more fun and fresh air after a 5 series saloon, although I nearly bought an X5, but common sense prevailed when I found a cancelled order with every extra on it going...........long live the M3!
