I test drove an automatic because it was the only twin available within 200 miles at the time to drive...and I actually quite enjoyed it. I thought the paddle shifts were damn crisp and there are multiple automatic modes (sport v/s reg) IIRC.

Go drive it with her and see what you think. This car is lightweight and raw...don't be fooled by the numbers...it is a brisk and agile car. But it will never beat a 6 or 8 cylinder engine of course.

And on the flip side...if your wife has any desire to learn that age old art of driving a manual....the manual transmission is quite good in this car as well!
