This car is MUCH slower than my 335i with the same engine. I don't even think Z4s can spin the wheels anymore ha, pretty sad, there's hella turbo lag until 4000rpm or so.
For me it is the DCT that is slower to respond to initial throttle... at least slower than a manual or even traditional auto. I have had this engine in at least a half dozen cars already, and I can't imagine that it would be different in the Z4 than all of the others...

For the record my manual 2011 Z4 was a barnstormer off the line.
