For those on the forum lucky enough to have a M3 with a SMG transmission I have a couple questions, (I am considering purchasing a M3 with a SMG tranny).
1. Will a test drive allow enough time to tell if it is the way to go? I ask this because if it takes a bit of getting used to the test drive may not be a long enough period to really make a valid determination on whether or not to purchase the M3 with an SMG.
2. Are they reliable? Sometimes more parts means more headaches. Does BMW have the SMG down pat or is it prone to failures?
3. Any hidden downside such as fancy maintenance or adjusting that has to be done frequently?
Pardon my ignorance
but the best way to make a determination is to talk to those who walk the walk. Thanks in advance...
