Re: Manual VS Auto?	Wed, 04 September 2002 14:31

The new BMW M3 has the SMG option. It has 11 modes depending on whether you want it in manual or auto mode, and how quick you want the changes. One mode is 'launch' mode. Hold the lever forward, rev it, release the lever, and it takes off quicker than the normal 3 pedal manual. Do it more than 30 times and your warranty is voided. It is still the manual box with the clutch, but the clutch is completely operated by electronics. The clutch will last longer than a driver operated one too. It won't allow over revving by picking the wrong gear- which I saw happen to one at Wakefield. Big bang, lotsa oil, lotsa $$. After all that I would still rather the 3 pedal variety..
