Agree with you on the S2000, since that is what I just got out of myself. Already had a 3 series manual about 10 years ago. We have recently moved and have a lot more traffic now. I've also driven a manual for about the last 20 years or so, and was just ready for a change. No doubt the DCT is quicker, and it's still fun. However, it is not as engaging to drive as the manual.
