You are right about the Torque Converter, which is more of a reason to give props to the 7AT. Nothing wrong with the 6MT (notice how now other manufacturers are offering their version of SRM now) , i'm just happy Nissan created such good transmissions for the 370z, and it still was sold at an amazing price!
