Also, I assume that even though it says xDrive is available on all models, I hope that doesn't include the M5... That would be sacrilegious, right? :thumbsdown:

My Ride: 2005 530i Individual, DVD Package, HUD, Bluetooth, Comfort Seats, SR, etc
Default

it will probably be

528i I6 3.0
535i TT I6 3.0
550i TT V8 4.4
xdrvie etc

the F10 740i will have 330 bhp rather than 300 of the 535i .....

Think this is a farce, numbers don't add up, and the next M5 is an 8 cylinder with turbo's. Sniff, sniff... smell like some BS!

Based on current BMW policy, I would be very surprised if they introduced the DCT on the non-M F10.

They have already put the DCT in the plain jane 335i (not an M) and already in the hands of Europeans today

+1 yes that right, but what I like to see is the 525 or even 523 have it.
If they already buildt it why not put it in all cars. It will save on mpg

I believe that is eventually what BMW intends.

I have driven a 2008 M3 with this transmission. It is an incredible transmission and should be the choice of any enthusiast.
