This. Except for "dying" instead.
Seriously, there is no rush out there to add any new technology to a manual clutch stick shift. It won't be too long before they aren't around at all anymore. On the Porsche forums there was a recent discussion of a large dealership that had just ordered 36+/- new 911's and only 3+/- in a traditional manual tranny. The Porsche PDK is about the best out there so that skews it some, but it still makes a pretty sad statement if you are a fan of the traditional manual offering.
