And just to add it: If manual's are SO GODDAMN GREAT then why are all the factory WRC cars running twin clutch AUTOMATICS? Phil: Quit being a boner. Every thread you enter into you manage to turn into a pissing contest. Whatever you have is the absolute best and everyone's everything else sucks. We get it. Now shut the **** up.

Jesus, WTF would happen around here if something serious ever had to be decided by concensus. I agree w Gordon - get what you prefer. For you, that'll be what's best.

Nah but seriously, each tranny has it's pros and cons. I drive anywhere from 500-700 miles a week, I've put 33,000 miles on my car in the year and half or so I've owned it. I got what I knew would be comfortable for me with that much driving.
