that idea is deader than dead because BMW stopped paying to develop DCT IIRC because they would have to make a beefier DCT to handle 500+ hp. hence.. MX drive and AT

" In the past, the shifting speed of a DCT was much faster and the other big advantage is weight - it’s much lighter. We can do the same shifting times now with an automatic and also weight reduction is also something where we made good progress.”
