Not sure if anyone noticed BUT that is 4 MPH faster than an M2C from prior gen and is faster than a 6MT G80... so the auto tranny clearly does a ton for this car.
These cars have been really optimized for the auto/DCT since E92. It wasn't so bad then, but you can definitely tell there is lag that exists in the F8x 6MT after shifts occasionally that does not ever happen on the DCT cars. It's a shame BMW has not put any effort at all into this like GM has with their Camaros and Blackwing cars which can hold boost through MT shifts and offer no-lift-shift.
