Yeah and even with the 7th gear in the DCT, the cruising revs at reasonable motorway speeds are higher than the M5 cruised at (logically)....not looked at what the ratios in the 'box are, or the final drive ratio, but it is different....time to have a Google....

(ETA - Yep, the transmission ratios are the same > 4.81 (1st), 2.59 (2nd), 1.70 (3rd), 1.28 (4th), 1.00 (5th). 0.84 (6th), 0.67 (7th)....but the F10 M5 had a final drive of only 3.15:1, versus the M2C at 3.46:1. Quite a bit shorter)
