Best option for Toyota which I wouldn't be too surprised if they do this unless it costs way too much is the Automated Manual Aisin already builds for Toyota in the LFA. Although I'm sure the LFA uses a very tricked out version, Aisin does promote it on their website.

Look at the middle of that page.
This satisfies Manual lovers by not adding complexity or added research costs while not totally screwing over Automatics.
