Now if there was a better acceleration time than an M3 with the same hp, it would really be amazing. But I seriously doubt it.

I am a bit puzzled by shift time do you mean the time between full engaged gears or do you mean acceleration differences between a manual and a equal DKG equipped machine? What if it was compared with a 5 speed manual? Less cogs means less time in-between gears. Mucho less Euros too, no? Richtig!
