I'm sure the 7AT is very nice, however I enjoy shifting and driving a 6 speed manual over an automatic. It's simply more fun to drive manual transmissions in my opionion. I feel like I'm driving the car rather than riding in it...

I started out wanting the 7AT, but I think I will be picking up the 6MT. I want the Z for driving pleasure. I think the 7AT would be fun, but I want a fully engaging experience that the AT would not provide.

If I had a DCT option, I am thinking i would still go for the MT... Look at the Porsche GT3 and Audi TT RS!! Both MTs!! Just my thoughts. Power to anyone with a Z, MT or AT....

Do yourself a favor and AT LEAST test drive both the 7AT and the 6MT before deciding.

While that may be true... this is regarding times and there is no Metric vs. English in measuring time. We all use the same time measuring system and "millisecond" just isn't that rare. No excuses!
