Question Resale of 6-spd vs. DCT

I'm a previous owner of Z4(e85) model. I've been thinking of purchasing the e89 but have found very few 35s with manual transmissions. I know DCT is faster than the 6-spd but I'm not looking for speed. Rather I just like the connection you get with a manual. After looking at other brands - Porsche, Nissan 350z, etc, very few manuals end up on the lot. It seems Corvette is the only model still catering to this market. This seems to tell me the manual is a thing of the past and it makes me very concerned about resale value of a manual vehicle.

What do you guys think?
