I was correcting a statement you made. Automatic usually refers to a transmission with a torque converter, and only the USDM E36 M3 had that option.

BUT, if you accuse me of needing to prove myself and spreading needless information, why'd ya even bring up the E46 M3? A working one with four wheels and tires that drives under its own power certainly does not cost under $13k.

The reason I brought up the E46 was b/c jdepould asked when M3's came with an Auto.

I originally said:
E46's with SMG's have an Automatic mode.
Which is a correct statement....that is not saying its an automatic, but it has an automatic mode

Then I said:
The only M3 without an Auto was the E30 M3.
Which is a wrong statement.... saying The only M3 without an Auto mode was the E30 M3. would have made it correct but I wasn't thinking of technicalities
