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.
Well-said. I couldn't agree more. I haven't spent much time driving the 8-speed in the F30, but enough to know that the DCT is better for me.
