Even Mercedes started using 7spd DCTs. I don't know why bmw moved away from them in their performance cars.
Mercedes cars aren't keeping up with BMW's cars, so.........
Not sure I can understand what you are actually talking about.

Mercedes is at a entirely different level then BMW could ever be........
He made a statement about Mercedes using DCT's in their performance cars. Their performance cars still pale in comparison to the equivalent BMW offering using AT's. Therein lies my point. Whether you believe that Mercedes offers a better overall product isn't something I choose to debate because people value different things. I have no issue with Mercedes as an automaker. Hell, my '03 C230 beater has 342,000 original miles on it and is alive and well; and it keeps commuter miles off of my ///M4. It has surpassed all expectations.
