I have no regrets going over the MT. I am MT all the way though. I can say I will never own an automatic unless they stop making any cars that are MT.
Every car I have ever used as my DD has been a MT ('80 toyota corola, '78 280Z, '06 Impreza, '10 370Z). I honestly hated it when I had to drive my dad's altima back in the day that was automatic. The only reason he got an automatic is she was his first kid driving and he wanted things to be easier for her so she could concentrate more on the road.
He regrets his decision of buying an automatic as she ended up learning stick and now drives a 6 spd Versa. She is actually one of the few girls I know that can drive MT well.
Even times when I am driving in heavy traffic I don't mind driving a MT as to be honest it helps keep me occupied while dealing with the traffic (lots of shifting/clutch work) instead of being bored out of my mind.
