IMO, the M5 went 8AT due to two main reasons: AWD and torque increase beyond the current DCT capability.

I am still hoping that they will stick with the DCT on the G8X M3/4. I think it is highly dependent if the G8X goes AWD. The current DCT will more than likely still be handle the torque of the S58, so if the G8X stays RWD only, an evolution of the current DCT would still work perfectly fine.
