In my experience, anything with a torque converter takes away throttle response.
They're inproving, but even though the new 997 turbo is actually faster with the slushbox, I'd have to get a conventional stick.
My Chevy pick-up is an automatic, and there is one uphill sweeper on the way to my house that is fun to push in third, but when the tranny decides to jump down to second mid-corner, the tail steps out quickly.
I don't like the pause between my shifting, and the tranny actually changing gears.
