Disclaimer:
In all honesty, I also am a big fan of the manual transmission. I drove a Honda S2000 until very recently. When it became necessary to replace it, and I chose a 370Z Roadster, I went with a 7AT mainly because I have a left knee that needs replacing and I drive in Atlanta during rush hour twice a day.

i dont think you understand.... wat i dont like about AT is its torque converter. electronic clutch AT is pretty cool. but then the roads in my area are mostly straight. fast stable car with AT =
