I have one of those modern M22W's with the Autogear case. It wines, especially in 3rd gear. It's pretty cool.

Seriously - (although I was being serious) one of my first projects as a young engineer was to fix gear whine in a manual transmission.
My mentor said "hear that? You gotta fix it."
"Fix it?" I said. "I LIKE it!!"
This might be a good time to make a move torwards a manual trans with overdrive, since you are still on the fence. Your three speed knob mounted on top of a 5 speed stick might be kind of fun.
