RE: transmission
Sequential
Manual
Gearbox
Paddle shifters, but using an actual manual gearbox, not the bs autostick you find in a lot of cars (which is an automatic). The e46 generation of M3's (01-06) has an available one (it was first released in the e36 generation), and it uses the exact same getrag 6-sp manual gearbox, but uses clutches and actuators to do the shifting. It is pretty cool, as it shifts amazingly quickly. Jerks you back and forth pretty good.

np...the next advancement for the new generation is a dual clutch gearbox, so it shifts f1 style, but since there are two separate clutches, the power is never disengaged...i.e. no jerkin...i like jerkin.

No, though they did do an autostick type thing with the last generation of preludes. Other members on here are better in tune with what's coming donw the pipe from them. I would expect it to be in the S2000, if anything.
