I think it definitely will pull hard up top if it is anything like the N55 + MPPK + MPE... Now I only have experience w the 6mt in that config
In antithesis to the N54(T) the N55 (6mt) example doesn't have the same bottom end the taller gears used for gas savings means you really have to wring it out... Yes it is decent until you get up top
So I'm sure the bottom end will be ok... Even more so than the N55 but who knows how the gearing and turbo tech really affect the output given in a claim range
Now even though I suggest the 6mt for driver involvement and fun factor, the DCT may be the way to go for seamless power output
Hopefully the active noise can indicate rpm and power well but I still think the S65 is the right blend
