It just irritates me when people claim the automatic in this car has performance benefits and then back up their claim by listing cars with automated manual transmissions with either single or dual dry clutches.

The fr–s has a torque converter standard automatic. Provide me an example of a sportscar/supercar with a traditional automatic that is faster than it's manual counterpart or is competitive with modern cars on a road course in its class.
