The one thing you really notice from these videos being inside the M3 is how smooth DCT is... SMG belongs in the beast so harsh and unrefined. try holding a camera that steady during shifts in S6 lol not gonna happen

I thought about that the first time I watched the vid as well!

cause the coupe is catless, torque buildup could take longer since there is much less backpressure depending on the speed they start at. plus the honking car (in this case the vert) usually gets the jump. factor both of those in and thats the result
