Yup - know all about that.
Porsche's PDK and BMW's DCT (thank gods they got rid of that SMG) are loads of fun. I'm sure the GT-R's manual and auto modes are legendary. I love taking corners and not having to worry about clutching, missing gears, and heel-to-toe. It's a perfect track set-up!
Just saying, in the short time I test drove those nice German cars, I missed the "clutch-in/shift/clutch-out" ritual. I know in traffic it becomes a chore, but it's a ritual I expect. My wife laughs when my hand instinctively heads for the auto-shifter while I'm in the SUV.
I already recommended to the OP to get the GT-R if he can swing it; trust me - as I said before, I'd give up body parts to own one. I admire you've actually driven one; I expect to do so in the near future. I may also forget about a true stick when I'm in Godzilla; but until then, I'm gonna reach for that stick.
