This is true.. Had the issue with my C6.. Got better after 12k miles or so.. But 2nd never liked to be rushed when cold.. Once warmed up.. All was fine...
Never did have the issue with my M3 though..

When I had a Mustang GT the forums always lit up in winter with complaints about 2nd gear.

When I had a Corvette C6 the forums always lit up in winter with complaints about 2nd gear.

Now I have a FR-S and the forum yet again has lit up this winter with complaints about 2nd gear.

So stop worrying about 2nd gear guys. Just take it easy on the tranny as it warms up and enjoy your car.
