Apparently, this shifter: http://www.motivemods.com/BMW-SMG-Sh.../bmw-sh-r3.htm can be installed on the E85 and E86, the DCTs are still not available for our models. :S

Why? The original steptronic shifter knob has a better, and natural "feel" in your hand than the newer, joystick-like thing. I have never liked the new "joystick", just don't look or feel proper.
