Your comment hit the nail on the head! Exiting my sedan WAS easier in tighter spaces than my coupe.
In fact, the distance between the forward vertical edge of the front door to the back tip of the fender grill is shorter on the E92

And, the M3 will be splitting my 80 mile (round trip) DD duty with my 550i and won't be just a weekend toy. We'll see how I feel about DCT in 6 months after the novelty wears off
It (novelty) doesn't (wear off). M-DCT's rev-match/throttle-blip is something a lot of us can listen to all day and never get tired of.
