Yea, I think we've beaten this horse, and the next 12 generations of its offspring, to death.

In the end, its personal choice. Honestly, when I entered the 1st86 contest, I selected auto but I was really going back and forth until I got to test drive it at the Long Beach event. I have specific reasons for selecting it that have nothing to do with me, but was ready to change to MT if I didn't like the way it drove.

In the end, I really liked the way the paddles worked, and the transmission is "that good", at least to me.
