They'll probably offer a simplified version for the non-M cars.

They did it with the SMG, though the non-M cars unit was by Magnetti and basically sucked.

The regular version will probably have 4 modes (regular and Sport in manual and auto respectively) instead of the 11 on the M-cars.

Looks like a really nice transmission.. however I have to have Audi did come out with a flawless DSG first though. Althought BMW has the bragging right to claim that this dual clutch transmission can handle engine speeds up to 9000 RPM. I also wished the shift lights would look more advance!

All the "M-Specific" references lead me to believe (hope) that it'll be offered for non-M. It will give my wife and I a happy comprimise on our next car, though I'll need to think of a new excuse not letting her drive my car...
