With the 8 gears and massaging provided by M to this transmission, I really don't think it will matter. The transmission in my 2013 X5M is pretty impressive as it is and after having experienced the 8sp gearbox in my wife's 335x, I think that M's work in these new x5/x6 M's will lessen the sense of loss people feel from the lack of a DCT. Personally, I would sacrifice the DCT for long term reliability.
