The automatic transmission in the 86 without a shadow of a doubt has more in common with daddy's Buick than the LFA. It may be the best damn slushbox AT in the world, but it's still got a torque converter, masking that by calling it "e-shift" or "flappy paddles" only serves to stroke someone's ego with falsehoods.
tl;dr buy what makes you happy.
And if you want a true flappy paddle gearbox buy a Golf.
