Borrowed time: When will the manual die?

[Beej]

I was 3 Pedals 4 Lyfe. I still do transmission checks and shake my head a little if I don't see a manual in a sporty car.

But you've gotta at least try these latest generation DCT's and the good torque converter autos. They're seriously impressive. The 6spd f80 I tested just didn't feel as good of a pairing.
