The other factors are the drop top and the fact that is new...!
If you have any opinions let me know!

I may be one of the few to agree with you. I too was prepared to ante up for a GTR when I found out it only came in automatic. I asked if I could get a manuel installed for extra money and laughter was the response. A total deal killer.
Fun as well as being connected to the car, is my goal when it comes to driving. I feel disconnected with an automatic, regardless of the performance.
While my 370 is having the engine replaced, Nissan gave me an automatic loaner, reconfirming my disdain of them.
