The only real advantage the manual have over the auto performance wise is launching. I personally feel if the auto had a launching program it would be a 0-60 in 6.3 second car. The 5-60 time between a manual and auto is 7.8-7.9 seconds with no launching involved. In other words fellas our cars are just slow(still fun as hell though) no matter the tranny. DCT's usually have a launching capability which helps make its acceleration look remarkable. Also Auto's and DCT's respond well to torquey engines too.
