I have an '04 and have no problems with the manual trans. But I dont do 5grand burnouts either. I think you'll find the 6 speed alot quicker---even if its just a seat of the pants feeling

the way the dealer told me is that they never really sold any maual trans. bull **** i know alot of people that would buy one. come on now who wouldnt want to shi* on a m3 and drive the car not be driven by the auto. 
if they put it in a c55, clk 320, clk 500, clk55 or e 500, 55, cls, or sl sh*t i think they made a big mistake not building the car the choice of getting one.
