Needless to say it stuck with me to this day and haunts me in my dreams.
That's hilarious! I don't think it's my place to tell anybody else what to get, but given that manual transmissions will soon become a thing of the past, I plan to get manuals for as long as I possibly can. It's a heart versus brain sort of thing. My brain says that DCT is technologically superior and just makes more rational sense. But, somehow, I just love rowing through the gears myself. So long as manuals continue to be offered, I'll keep getting 'em.
