Scott, I drove the new F10 550 with the 8speed tranny, and all I can say is wow. I mean, talking about close ratio gear shifts, and the way it responds to acceleration, upshifting and downshifting is amazing. And to get that gas mileage (25hwy for the 550) is truly unique.
i think BMW did their homework on the 7 series. Car looks stunning
