We'll see what they do with the tuning, S58 is not nearly as punchy down low and the ZF is about 7/10ths of the DCT in terms of shift quickness. It's a much different driving experience.

There's no way I'd be considering a ZF8/S58 G87 - I've driven the same config in the G80/2 and was 'meh'.
A manual G87 I'd give serious thought to, but not to replace the DCT F87.
