So I drove a 2014 xDrive28i with the 2.0L turbo engine from the F3x. I'm about 90% sure that the 2014 had 8 gears and was using the ZF8. I thought the engine and transmission were pretty good in this application, but felt less peppy than in the 3-series, presumably because of the X1's added weight.
