I am a big fan of the F8x generation DCT, and always drive in 'S' mode. I'm really worried that the new G8x M cars will be coming with a slushy automatic transmission.

Whenever I've driven any BMW car with a ZF gearbox, it's felt really laggy responding to the paddle shifters. Nothing like the snappy instantaneous response I want from an M car.

I think the current M5 has this transmission. Can anybody say how it compares to the DCT box?

Is this something that BMW can fix in software? Or has BMW finally found a way to make me buy a Porsche?
