M7 vs. A8 is a bit tougher. We don't have any real world experience to go on but if it performs on par with the world class DCT's then it becomes a much harder decision.
The great thing is Chevy is giving us the choice. There's a whole sub-culture within the Porsche community that is hammering Porsche over their PDK only GT3.....

I currently have an A8 on my Audi. It's not the dual clutch version, which I've read is very quick and solid as a shifter. I will say that when I am manually shifting my Audi, there's a noticeable lag you have to plan fore between the time you move the shifter and the time it actually shifts. It's not long, however it is noticeable.
For me, with a sports car it's more in the aesthetics of driving. When I shift with a manual, it's a connection to the car that is visceral and primal. I have yet to find an experience with any automatic that does the same thing.
