I hear this arguement a lot. I've had a manual sports car for 6 years and fairly often drive in traffic but never once did I think, "I wish I had an automatic." Now there were times I wish I had a dual clutch transmission so I could accelerate/shift quicker. But for a car like this, where the purpose is fun, you have to go manual. Although, the automatic downshift blipping does seem pretty sweet.
