I really don't understand what the big deal is about shifting the SMG in traffic.? If your hands are on the steering wheel, all you have to do is flick the paddle.? If the traffic is truly stop-and-go, you probably aren't shifting out of first anyway.? Shifting a traditional manual in stop-and-go traffic can get old because of the constant workout of the left foot but I don't get why people always seem to briing up the SMG shifting in traffic.
Clearly, in stop and go traffic, the auto mode of the SMG isn't the way to go...

Oh and to Ziering545I since its a lease... are you planning on buying the car after the lease? If you're going to return it, get SMG! Try it out. How much longer do you have on the lease? year? year and a half? its not long... try it out. Its not that bad even for those that probably dont like it. But if you do like it, like me, DUDE its a must have!

Stream,
I never see any SMG at Stevens Creek. Peter Pan currently has 645i with SMG.
