Yeah, I avoided the older SMG's for that reason. The 08+ Dual Clutch (DCT) trannies are much better and less problematic. If you want an older one get a manual trans. My M3 was an 09 with DCT.
Another reason I like the 370 is they seem to be relatively rare, I see M3s more often around Dallas/Fort Worth.
