I'd personally take the 5 spd Auto box over the manual for the Aero every time. Our traffic conditions are such that an Auto box is almost becoming a must now. (What use is a manual then?). The Autobox is also very well matched to the power of the car, and I believe that what you lose in power loss through the auto transmission, you more than make up in smoothness, driveability and quick changes of the auto. The manual is around a second quicker over the 0-60 sprint, so if you are doing a lot of those, that second may be important to you. If not, then the auto is well worth the cost.
