When I have to run boring errands around town in my M3, the DCT is perfect for catching up on SIRI business news while I just lay back,m listen and barley move as if I'm back home in my easy chair. Yet when the need for speed comes, with minimum finger effort, I just push the M button and blow the competition away, while still laid back in the BMW easy chair. We all have to lift a foot to brake once in a while! If you like the ease of driving an automatic, in traffic, then DCT is the only way to go! I too love an MT and always will. But in the mornings, juggling hot coffee in one hand, using my phone, setting up navigation etc, and generally playing with all the new BMW technology, DCT is more practical for the working man or woman.
