I find myself manually shifting mine on occassion just to get the "feel" of a manual.... I have NO regrets though and I love the point and shoot aspect of it especially as you increase power levels.

Yep. Right after I hear all the MT-82 owners bitching about losing because the auto is considered "Cheating"!
No need to buy a twin disc clutch, bushings, shifter, stainless steel lines, etc....

When they give me a dual clutch transmission is when I will miss one, hell I will have one. Until then manual or nothing.

All I hear is Auto guys complain on the road course on why they lose to manual guys because they can't "choose" the proper gears like we can...

My Select Shift allows me to choose any gear I want at will.
But I could care less about a road course to be honest.

Eh, I just enjoy driving a manual. If I want an auto i'll drive my ecoboost truck and piss off the hondas with it.

That depends on your preference. If someone prefers auto, then by definition, driving a manual would be less enjoyable.
