I also think the manual brings out the worst in turbo engines. I don't know if it's the programming on the automatic or what but they can mask a lot of the lag.

Before I got the miata I test drove some 718 boxsters and the first was an automatic since that's all they had. I remember thinking this really doesn't have much lag at all and feels pretty good. Then I got to test drive a manual and it was a totally different experience. I could totally feel the lag. Now maybe given more time with the car I would learn how to shift it as to avoid the lag, but I'd rather just have a NA engine.
