I am a shifter guy myself, been one all my life, but after test driving a DCT 135i, I was very impressed on the DCT's acceleration and quick shifts and the ability to go full auto in the city in normal stop and go traffic. The sport option was also very good as it kept the revs for shifting a bit higher when you want to have a spirited drive. "Full" manual was great.
Only complaint I have is that they should have made the paddles a bit more extended out.
To me, it would be a decision as to what my intentions would be with the car. If it was for serious track duty, I would definetly consider DCT.
