the dct is very wife friendly.

Honda accord? f that. get the e90 m3. walk to your garage then get a boner because you get to drive that awesome machine

just make sure to have some warranty for issues
So I was out when the driver showed up to deliver the car and my wife had to get it from the end of the street. She facetime'd me so I could tell her how to drive the DCT. I guess she only moved the gear selector to the right one time instead of two, because she immediately says "This car is so loud!" and then followed that up with "Its at 6000 rpm".
After she stopped and put it in auto mode, she was much happier. But here's to getting the car and revving to 6k rpm immediately on a cold engine

I brought it to work for the first time today. Its right at 4 miles distance and the engine got up to about 190 degrees with revs below 2500. Sitting at 21.8mpg between a quick trip to get gas and the drive into work this morning.

Friday, it goes in for new PS4S tires. Its a far cry from my 330xi and I'm loving it so far.
This thread is useless without pics!! Congrats on delivery 🚚
