That sure seems to be the consensus, such a great combination. I don't have any comparative measure as every German vehicle I have owned prior to purchasing my X3 M40i has been a manual. The B58 is such a gem unto itself. It can go from beast to gas miser in a heartbeat, truly remarkable. I averaged 6.9L/100KM in Eco Pro during a near 1000KM return trip to the East Kootenay's in August with four of us plus gear on board. Owners with tunes/downpipe pushing considerably more power than stock get similar highway results too.
