This was a huge consideration when I bought my Mercedes SLK (went with the 6-speed manual 320 rather than the supercharged, "glorified slushbox" 230 model).
This means that you have not experienced the PDK transmission yet? I drove one and if I could retro one of those in my 993 I would do it tomorrow. I have a good bud with a Ferarri 360 with auto and paddles and I don't think in your wildest dreams you can shift faster of better than either of these transmissions
