I don't want to relaunch the eternal debate manual vs auto but if an auto was mandatory I would go for the DCT, especially if you have been spoiled with a DSG before. I recently had a 335i with a step as a loaner, loved the engine but the car was numbed because of the step, could not wait to have my 128i manual back (or my old R32 for that matter).
Interesting. I Am trying to go and test drive one tomorrow, but dealers only have brand new ones. and i dont really want to go waste some dudes time that i found on the internet selling one!

Damn this is hard.
