The manual tranny is more efficient, no matter how you want to look at it. More power will make it to the rear tires. As long as it isn't hamstrung like the M5 6-speed, than I don't think anyone who wants a true manual will be disappointed. I concede that the 'other tranny' will likely be faster around a road course. I'm in this for other reasons.
Good thread, btw.
