I've an auto black one. The auto, when left to its own devices can be a bit frustrating at times. However, slap it around to where you want it to be and it's very satisfying. I live in the mountains where being able to control your shift points adds immeasurabley to the fun. Given another chance, I'd still pick the auto.

Doubt that you'll be able to get an SRT at msrp for a couple of months after its introduction.
