You are missing the point my friend, no better feeling than taking my M3 out on some windy roads and shifting gears myself.
couldn't give a shit about the transmission tbh, i just prefer AT

so long as i'm in the right gear for the right bit of the road whether that be via AT ~95% of the time of through myself overriding it ~5% of the time it matters little..

don't be so insolent as to mark AT users as less 'enthusiastic' about their vehicles than yourself, it is incredibly arrogant.

i drove manual cars for circa 10 years prior to my first auto, not going back ever.
