More powerful...faster...option for AWD. All positive changes. I love my F80...have never reached ceiling of vehicle in 5 years, but I have grown attached to the DCT. It's not a PDK, but I enjoy having the equivalent of a F1 transmission at that price point. This is what I will miss if I upgrade to the G8x.
I am a big advocate of dual clutch transmissions, but F1 use sequential single clutch transmissions, just like the majority of purpose built race cars.
