Also like how the flaps are always open in sport but open in comfort above a certain rpm.

Design is all about making good decisions for a user - interesting to see them put all the functions down to the comfort/ sport / sport+ switch rather than individual buttons.

Kinda like it - sport will defiantly be my main mode
Yes it's a nice approach. There are pros and cons to this vs the full adjustability of the F8X. I found I tinkered a lot rather than just enjoying it. I think it will work very well. Can't wait to use with the 6MT as without Adaptive and DCT holding the gear longer on its own it's just sound and throttle response = full time sport for me
Haha - The choice between Manual / DCT was the hardest - my head was telling me DCT while my heart was saying Manual. For the time being I've settled on DCT as I really want a Duel Clutch in my life and the shifts should be really good.
Oh yeah the DCT is a peach for sure and if DD duties over say 15,000 MPA essential IMO.

You won't be disappointed, have driven a DCT before, takes a little adjustment, no creep and slightly awkward at low some and parking close used to be a minor fret. Once on the open road them, my god amazing, no power loss instant play station shifts!
