According to the rumors and a lot of folks here... The current M135i in Europe is not offered with DCT, and supposedly that means no for the M235i also. I personally think its strange for them to do that in the US where they've offered it for almost 2 years.

I really hope it makes it as an option for the M235i, its seriously something that would keep from buying the car if it doesn't. I have not been impressed in the ZF 8-speed at all, in the normal or sport config. For me, the DCT is far superior and I will pay $$ to get it in my 2er.
