Point taken. With a MT, you don't get to choose level of response like you do with the AT/DCT.

Then why pay for it? Think about what you just said.

I think you're misunderstanding me. I meant I still enjoy the extra power driving around town and on normal highway trips. One does not need to be driving at the limit to experience the extra power and enjoy it. To me, it's nice to have on every drive. I like it when the car accelerates with very little effort no matter what gear it's in. Going 60-65 on the highway, it can easily accelerate to pass while still in 7th gear at 2000rpm (DCT.)

Somebody already said it - what do YOU expect out of the car? That's what your decisions should be based on.

This.
My only point is, if the OP really wants a 135 but is holding back only because of the risk of HPFP failure, I say get the 135. If the OP is 100% satisfied with the 128 (and not just "settling for" the 128), the 128 is a great choice too.
