There will be NO v8 M3 next year. The 3 Series (and upcoming 4) isn't schedule for a complete redesign until the 2006 Model Year. Which means at the very earliest you'll see the new model is late next year, maybe summer.
The M3 won't debut for at least another year. So you are looking at 2007 MY or maybe even 2008 MY. Given that they might have to design a new M motor for the car, I would look at a latter date rather than a earlier one. (Although they might just shoehorn the M5's old 400bhp engine into there.)
As far as the C55 is concern, stick with a gearbox that you could shift yourself.
