I'm not going to argue over whether there are any 'real sports cars' in automatic (see endless examples in other posts/threads about F1, PDK, DCT) but this is the first time I've heard someone claiming a difference in the sound between the two.

You seem very enthusiastic about your choice, and that is good, but I don't think you know what you're talking about.

If you can hear the transmission over the engine, exhaust, etc.. you may be doing something wrong.
