Oh, for sure it will be. The SMG tranny is a thing of the past, with DCT now in place. I'm actually a big fan of the DCT tranny. It's a great revision to SMG. I've test driven the new M3 and am actually considering getting the M3 convertible, as the wife and I have never owned a convertible.
Again though... the new X5M is a glorified SAT Tranny with better throttle response and less lag. It's still a SAT tranny though.
Anyone attend the M Driving Event for M Owners that recently toured the US? We were test driving the X5M, X6M and M3 DCT.
