Really the reason I stand up and advocate the 7AT so much is because otherwise it gets **** on a lot just out of the general "sportscars aren't autos" mindset, and it's a fine choice
. So that aside keep in mind they're both fine options, the car rocks with either one, and there's a long list of minor perfectionist quibbles people will make about both of them. I wouldn't let that list stand in the way of a decision though: just pick what you're gonna be happier driving
.
