I believe the DCT on my 135 is the same as the DCT on the M2. It’s honestly very good. I’m not sure how the gear ratios are set up though or compares to my car. I’m sure someone does. Having never driven an M2, I can imagine it has similar acceleration (maybe a tick slower than me due to weight and drag from tires) to my car, but since is wider with bigger tires will out handle my car. I think you can improve the 135i handling but it’s really the small tires they used that did a disservice to the car which is why I went a size up. That with better, more grippy tires really helps. I average 21-22 mpg in fairly heavy traffic with some 55-75 mph stretches. The M2has nearly the same fuel economy estimates so I would guess you would do similarly depending on how you drive of course.

And I get about 28-29mpg on the highway if I drive 65-75.
