I enjoy driving the car. it will be a daily. I like manual transmissions and I've drove plenty of auto sports cars, they just arnt for me. The only need for an auto is in a 100% dedicated drag car like my Camaro. I was #3 in the country for fastest 6-speed SBE ls1 nitrous car back when I was trying to break that record. I dont have a problem with drag racing a manual trans. I think I can handle the automatics that pull up next to me lol.
