I've given my opinion on this topic before and inevitably the AT drivers come and rip me but it is what it is. It's a sports car, and a manly sports car at that with its aggressive stance, high revving engine and thrilling ride when you get on it. It should be bought in a manual, PERIOD. Sure Ferrari and Lambo and Porsche and yada yada are all autos and real sports cars and manly and the like but we're not talking an 80k + supercar here, we're talking about a real car for real people. My car is beautiful, and there are a hundred reasons why I love it, not the least of which is the fact that my wife can't drive it no matter how bad she'd like to.

The only argument I give any credence to is the issue with daily driver traffic. But even then, the anticipation of being able to open it up and get up and down on the clutch when the traffic breaks is too much of a high for me to give up. Guess I'm just old school. To each his own.
