Sounds like you want a manual.
Personally I was dead set on a manual until I drove both transmissions, since it was near impossible to find one I wanted in manual. The automatic really surprised me and ended up choosing it as I sit in traffic more than anything.
It has its expected downside, like if you're just cruising and decide to floor it in automatic, you have that awful "annnnnnnddddd hangonimsequentiallydownshiftingthreegears NOW" downshift. In manual though when driving hard it's quick, faster than what I remembered automatics being. I can't imagine you'll be satisfied with it though if you don't like dual clutch.
I didn't like manuals syncro rev, and the clutch felt bad in every one I drove. Though if I had something else for commuting and the Z just for fun, I'd get the manual and replace the clutch and shifter.
