Flappy paddles are fun in their own way. Its fun to slap through the gears like an F1 race car.. However the earlier comment about feeling connected is a very good point. In my own opinion, for recreational driving, the MT6 is the way to go for pure sports car hooliganism. If this is truly your daily driver and you have a long drive in the middle of rush hour /shrug i would consider the AT.
Just don't forget that you will have slightly lower HP numbers with the extra drivetrain loss. And if your a numbers kinda guy this may also sway your decision towards the MT6. The AT will be easier to launch, but somewhat less fun, again just my opinion. For me there really is nothing like dropping a gear, letting out the clutch and slamming on the gas
I would also suggest the MT if your going FI (turbo or SC) but i get the feeling that's not on the list. Either way, good luck with your decision, and welcome to the club!
