It is so. You have either to chose between FUN or PERFORMANCE.
PERFORMANCE: Porsche 911 Turbo S, BMW M3 GTS, Ferrari 458 Italia, McLaren MP4-12C, Nissan GT-R, Lexus LFA
FUN: Porsche 911 GT3/RS, Porsche Boxter Spyder, BMW 130i, Z4 M Coupé, Lotus Elise/Exige.



The M3 is more a GT and has not much tuning potential. But the M1 can easily be tuned (well I hope so) and even with 6MT the M1 can be faster than the M3 DKG, on straight line because of more power, and around the track because it has M3 drive-train, and it is lighter.

So this is what I would chose:
M1 E82: 6MT
M3 E92: 7DCT
