Why? Because of the EU ratings where DCT uses .5 liters less than the MT.
And I know that could be the wrong comparison... if that is the case I'm sorry!
One more hint: The M5 states 20 MPG on the BMWUSA, and according to the fueleconomy.gov, this is the figure for the DCT. So if I use that as measurement, the 26 should count for the DCT at M3/4 as well.

Brian Cooley is my other favorite car reviewer other than Chris Harris, I hope this helps (start at 11:43 for EPA info).
