I had the same problem when I bought mine 5+ years ago... they were all auto, with ONE exception that was MT, but Silver (sorry, just not my thing) and not well maintained.
But the 6MT was worth it! No regrets going with a 323i (I don't even have a sunroof, though many 323s do), would choose that over an AT 328 any day.
Unless you truly want that power bump, the 323 should be just fine. With a tune and some exhaust work, you can probably get a mild power bump to about 220 (compare that to 215HP for a 325 using the 3L N52), but the tune improves the power across the whole power band and is definitely worth it.. not just about peak power.
I'd also highly recommend a CDV delete, clutch stop, and weighted shifter
