None... a shamy will invariably leave marring and swirls. I would only use high quality microfiber towels for drying and for washing sheepskin or microfiber mitts.

Just an opinion The clearcoat on the M3 is, IMO, very soft and swirls easily. Anything that car easily trap debris (like a shamois) runs a higher risk or marring the paint.

+1, this is what I use and I've never had a problem with anything on the paint.
