Please forgive my ignorance, but what is the main gripe with the SMG from a driving experience point of view? The time I have spend in an E46 M3 has been with a MT, so I don't have a frame of reference.
I believe it was slow to respond to user input. The shifts were fast when they happened, but it didn't happen right when you gave the input to shift. I didn't own one though so maybe I don't know what I am talking about.
