I have never found a car that affords as great of an emotional and physical connection between driver and machine as one with three pedals. Knowing not everyone can drive a manual or heel-and-toe only helps to strengthen that bond.
Good question. Probably I'd say manual but some cars like a 458 or GT3 work so well with DCT that a manual wouldn't be as enjoyable. The BMW M2 I'd definitely get manually. That car seems a bit boring with A/T.
