If the auto is such a dog, what would you do?

OK, most agree that the classic 900 (C900) automatic tranny has issues with gas mileage, responsiveness and logevity.
Given an opportunity to make a change, what would you do?
Is there such a thing as a more performance oriented automatic (say, from a later year car) that fits correctly? Is a conversion from auto to manual a cost and maintenance good idea?
Or shoud one simply accept the fact that the auto equipped C900 is what it is, and make appropriate consessions when driving?
