Manual perhaps base. That satisfies a romantic idea of manual defining enthusiast--and quiets the critics and magazines.

THEN, Offer the DCT as a fine option--and it will also sell just as well. Happy to pay more for that option. Better that option for me [no flames please] than more and more "connectivity/sound" trying to help everyone ride along with me via more and more and more technology.

The DCT is a great box, and allows a lot of cross-over driving opps, if wanted. It's used well in several models and opens the door to more sales opportunities. Why limit the revenue potentials.
Totally agree. I am a MT enthusiast, but with the capabilities of DCTs and even a good AT, enthusiasts come in both flavors, and rightfully so.
The car should (and will) absolutely come both ways.

(but if it came 6MT only, I wouldn't shed a tear, cuz that's how I plan to get mine anyway)
