I have manual trannies in my other cars (E46 M3, E39 540i, and 2004 GT3). The manual in my C7 is better than all of them in tactile feedback, short throw, and ease of clutch use. In my opinion it greatly adds to the enjoyment of driving the car, and the active rev matching works perfectly to obviate the need for heel and toe shifting, if desired. I echo the opinions expressed that relegate the automatic transmission to those living in congested cities, and conversely, those who absolutely are committed to the fastest lap times while racing or doing HPDE events.
