Because they are built with one primary objective - to be faster than their competitors. It's a game of one-upmanship with super exotics.
If that's your ultimate goal - to shave 3/10ths of a second off your 0-60 runs, then yes - the computer shifts faster than a human and an auto is the way to go.
However, if you are looking for engagement and more control over your driving experience, a manual can give you that.
Is the F10 quiet? Yep. Is it still fun to shift it myself. Yep.
Most people I talk to with SAT's don't use the paddles very often, if at all. So it's one pedal for go and the other for stop? That's always been a pretty lame experience for me. |
This is my 4th BMW and my first AT car. IMHO: paddles, right foot for running and left foot for breaking is much more fun than MT. And much more efficient.
