6MT Pros:
  • More involved driving experience
  • Less out-of-warranty worry
  • Lower sticker price

6MT Cons:
  • More driver involvement required

DCT Pros:
  • Faster
  • Driver chooses his level of involvement up to a level somewhere b/w a slush-box and a manual
  • Impress your friends with rapid fire shifts and explosive, smooth acceleration
DCT Cons:
  • See 6MT Pros. Substitute Less, More and Higher for More, Less and Lower.
Nothing against you OP, but this is just a brewing ground for a shit-ton of trouble This quoted answer is good, let's lock this thread before it gets out of control.

Oh, and try searching first next time. You'll understand why we're all begging for this thread to be locked.
