Yes or no ?

Don't think it would cope with the torque.

NotNormal · 12-06-2009, 03:16 PM

I know what your saying, but i was thinking along the lines of the Nissan GTR, and what with the advancement in technology - could be possible ?!?

Nah, bmw air on the side of caution. I cant see it getting it.

transmission is built to hold 600NM. think it is too much on the limit for BMW though

I also think an automatic fits better to a diesel then a DCT, especially the new 8 gear automatic. Not sure BMW will bring this in the current 3 series, I think they will wait for the new 3 series. Purely speculation though
