Default Future Dallas Z Owner with a question

Hi 370Z owners, my name is Jarrod and I am a 25 year old Web Developer from Dallas(Richardson), Texas. After months of going back and forth on my vehicle decision, I am planning on picking up a 2013 370Z tomorrow in McKinney. I was able to test drive both an AT and MT and enjoyed both.

Here are my issues:
1. I live in Dallas (Richardson) and spend almost all of my time on 75, George Bush or 35. All equally crappy roads with heavy traffic in my opinion.

2. I have not driven a MT since '03 in my '02 Mustang GT. Not sure if the clutch is way different or if I totally suck at shifting all over again, but I had a hard time getting it right the past two Z's I have test drove.

3. I was heart set on a MT until I got in the AT today and had a blast using the sport shifter (if that is what it is called :/).

I had an Acura RSX ages ago and was 'reminded' on a constant basis how stupid my decision was to purchase an AT.

So basically I am curious what the general opinion was of the AT from the 370Z community. I know that this is generally a person to person opinion, but I can tell you my experience with RSX and GTI people (which I had a bit ago) love giving you crap for an AT.

--- Sorry if there is a thread on this. I tried doing some searches but my brain is a little fried right now. Wouldn't be rushing this if I wasn't headed to the dealership in the morning. Thank you for all your help.
