i'm a huge fan of the traditional 3 pedal manual setup (my truck has the same 6 spd transmission your 370z has, just without SRM unfortunately). but, if you've driven a car equipped with a dual clutch automated manual, you would know it's the best of both worlds. you get the control, strength, and power delivery of the manual while getting the ease of operation of an auto. other than cost, i don't see any downsides. just because you aren't pushing a clutch pedal doesn't mean you aren't involved in driving the car
