I love my 5sp aero, but the turbo does take some getting used to. When it's hot outside or the car is not warmed up, turbo isn't always consistent. The auto may makes things a bit more consistent. However, I think what it may limit on the downside (inconsistency), it may also limit on the up side (pure driving fun). When it's not too hot and the engine is warm, the car is a blast to drive, especially on the highway but also in town. I have always had 5spds and feel you can get more out of them on the perf end. Could be bias.
