The M5 and M6 are already very fast with the DSG tranny so they will unlikely get the M-DCT box. Not only will the difference in performance be very minimal but it would cost BMW quite some money to do testing and all. |

1. Spreading the cost, possible discount due to increase volume 2. Increased efficiency during installation in assembly process 3. After sales support: easier to fix a system that is widely used across the lineup thus reducing the need for specific transmission training. etc... | |
