I think you're going to enjoy the M235. It's a fantastic car. I have come very close to ordering one a couple of times, but I'm holding off to gather more information on some other cars.
I love the rev-matching feature in my 370Z. I'd prefer it in a future manual but it's definitely not a deal breaker. I have been heel-toeing on my own since I learned how to drive.
But it still is nice to let the car handle it from time to time. :thumbsup:
It really looks like to me Ford is intending the GT350 to be either a fully capable DD or a track star depending on how you choose to option it. I'd hope that it's built for a long lifespan!

What are we really talking about in terms of input, though? I would imagine most of us input addresses via voice commands if we are driving. When stopped it really takes no longer to input an address using the iDrive dial vs. a touch screen. Compared to the screen in my old Focus ST, it might...
That's exactly it.
What the joystick control affords the designer is the ability to place the screen forward on the dash and as high as possible without obstructing the view out the window. On the F30 that means the top of the screen is about level with the cowl area. You can easily glance...
