For the record, the SMGII Drivelogic (Sequential
Manual Gearbox II) did not feature a dual-clutch transmission. But I am sure that you know that. I recall that my E46 M3 SMGII could behave a tad clunky/jerky on cold mornings. M-DCT is a smooth operator. About the SMGIII Drivelogic (E60 M5): see for example
here (2004).
