I drove both. I've owned a lot of manuals, and sports cars, and thought I'd never get a wimpy automatic. But the 7AT is awesome, it convinced me to buy the car. Low gear launches you quicker than the manual, and the paddle shifters give you complete control, even rev matching on downshift. It made the car a delight, instead of rowing through 6 speeds. My opinion, of course.
