I realize you haven't done anything yet.
Just trying to help... See if your SA will let you borrow a DCT equipped car over the weekend. IMO, a test drive won't be enough. I say this because it is really slick, but the appeal of flipping the paddles just wears off quickly. It's too automated, and many will miss being engaged with their car the way a manual offers.

Disclaimer: If BMW only offers it in DCT, I'll still probably get one.
