It completely changes the car. It makes the manual mechanical and precise, like nirvana. About as close to a Porsche GT3 manual box as you can get on a BMW (though not quite GT3, it's like 98 to 100).
Any thoughts on the lag between shifts that many have mentioned on all of the F8x cars, including M2 and M2C? Is it something that bothers you?
Not at all, I barely, if ever, notice it. That's through daily driving, multiple AutoX and track days, and weekly canyon carving. If I was just drag racing every one maybe I would care more, but otherwise there is isn't any noticeable lag to me between shifts (at least not enough to make me feel like it's odd).

I would say drive one of you aren't sure.
