Good luck. I guess if you are really holding off your purchase because of the DCT. Please don't wait. I have the same feeling for the 135 as you before I order.
I have tested a lot of the double clutch gearbox. I have tested the Golf GTi, R32... semi impressive. Then the new Lexus IS-F... then the 135. I decided to order it.
Yes the 135 is slightly slower, but it does a very good job.
It does such a good job that when I tested a series of PDK from Porsche yesterday. They talk it so high up and it is the premium sports car making a double clutch gear box and it must be good.
Yes it is very good, but is that really that much different from the automatic they have in the 135i. Hmm I doubt it will be THAT much of a difference. It is certainly different then the Cayenne "steptronic" though. The 135 is much much closer to the PDK than the steptronic.
Now I just have to try DCT and the current 135 back to back.
