I get it if you're out on the track chasing lap times, you need something for a commute in stop-and-go traffic, or your wife needs to drive it. for that sort of stuff dct is great.

manual just adds an extra layer of immersion to the experience for me though. I could care less about losing to another car by 1-2 car length because its a dct. There will always be someone faster.

Never will I ever be able to say "I had a 458 and a GTR". Awesome.

The fact that you are willing to give up a length or two to be more engaged is cool. Its more about how you get there, not when you get there.
