Does anyone regret their transmission decision?

^^^
the last part is the most important part!
as long as it is a Z, who gives whether u have the 7A or 6M?
even tho the 7A is not as amazing than the GTR or the EVO X
i think it is still freakin awesome
also owning a 7A Z will limit myself from doing crazy/stupid things with it
for example, putting a stage 2 or 3 clutch in it and then complain while doing a lot city driving and spending endless money to do crazy power mod ( so i can just spend the money for the look! well i guess i m a semi-ricer LOL )
or when i m drunk some idiot will claim they can drive MT and f up the clutch lol

I waited nearly a year for a Sport roadster with 6MT exactly the way I wanted it. Regrets? No way. This manual is one of the best I've ever tried. Love the SyncRev. Tomorrow, I'm putting on a short shifter to make it even cooler and adding a CBE to hear it more. Yeah, I love this transmission.

No regrets here for getting a manual.

I love my 6MT, despite the fact almost all of my driving is in the city.

No way would I drive an auto sports car.

I love to shift!

I love the paddle shifters.

I test drove both a 40th and an auto Z. I loved both transmissions equally, but auto won out in the end as I needed SOME practicality. I'm in traffic most of the week and I live in South Florida so the roads are flat and boring anyway.

I don't regret my decision, but yes I do wish it was as fast at shifting as my DSG GTI was.
