I'm excited to see what they'll do with the new M3. I was never interested in the DCT, so the switch to ZF 8 speed doesn't bother me. I can see how it would bother others because I've heard that this powertrain combo in the X3-M is pretty laggy. Given all this, there's more reason now to go with the manual. This new S58 sounds great in the X3M/X4M. I just hope that they manage to make the power delivery more progressive because it was explosive on early F80 models. I'm hoping for more natural steering with more feedback than the F80, a ride that won't be ridiculously harsh, and a higher quality cabin than the F80. Honestly, if they just manage to get the steering right and achieve more linear power delivery I'm sure it'll be praised vs. the F80.
