Not all G37's with the sport package are manual's. You can get the auto and add on a sport package.
And yes, it is worth it and so much more. The limited slip diff alone is worth the sport package (but the bigger brakes, bigger wheels, and better shocks are all extras to make the grin even bigger). Let me put it this way...even BMW doesn't put a limited slip on any of their non-M cars because it's what makes the M's handling unmatched by the non-M's. To add one later on, it'd cost a few grand and a lot of labor.
And just to clarify, I don't think you can get a manual without the sport package.

You can get the wheels, and both styles are pretty stiff. I liked the look of the S better, and the bonus is seats, brakes and looks.
Also the 3-series handles better without a traditional diff...it does have a basic "e-diff" and most new performance cars dont' have a physical limited slip. Technically in this day and age the e-diff is better. It can do things faster and better. A physical diff can only react.
My two thoughts on this are. Are you going to go mod happy with your car? Like suspension , engine mods etc. If you are than I would get the non-sport because there would be no use in getting the S model if you were going to change out the suspension. Save a few hundred bucks and buy another mod.
Na, I'f I got Blue Slate only looking to do a black theme. I'm not putting stupid **** and ****ing with the car that's just dumb as hell when the car is already fast and beautiful. Just adding a few black tweaks here and there and I'm good.
