How many of you guys are driving the DCT compared to manual? I'm curious if the DCT is actually lower MPG.

I only ask because my current 230i is using the automatic transmission and i definetly get worse gas mileage if i were to drive in sport mode compared to my S2000 which gets an average of 22-25mpg with spirited driving. Also i noticed zero difference between driving in Eco mode compared to Comfort as my MPG was pretty much the same across both modes.

Im going to be getting my M2C in MT but i've also never driven an MT that has Comfort, Sport, Sport + as options. I can understand Sport+ just being no nannies on, however does the throttle response change that drastically with a MT? Its hard to imagine enjoying driving this car without immediate throttle response when dealing with a clutch.
