Agree, comes down to cost.
Bugatti, Porsche, Ferrari, McLaren all use DCTs that deal with 600ft-lbs plus of torque, no reason BMW can't jump on the band wagon but cost to benefit ratio, with the common core customers in mind. |
This says it all- BMW wants to now make m cars for "all" not just for enthusiasts. That's the problem. The f8x is a good example- it's a street car which is trackable rather than track car that can be driven in the street- mclaren, and the new 991.2s and up is track focused first and street second.
Don't get me wrong I love my m4 but it's not track first and this is ok for me as while I autox it and do DE events I haul groceries and my two kids more often than I do autox or DE events
