I have a 6 speed manual in my 2005 Roadster and love it. My 2004 Coupe has an automatic and I rarely use the Autostick feature simply because it's just too damn slow when shifting. About the only time I use it is to downshift to pass as these cars just don't want to downshift with the throttle unless you mat the pedal to the floor, and I don't always need that.

Maybe I'm a bit spoiled because my job affords me the opportunity to drive a lot of really, REALLY nice cars with truly modern automatic transmissions. The kind that will shift NOW as soon as you touch the paddle shifter behind the wheel, even rev matching on downshifts. Once you drive something that reacts like that, you'll never want to touch the Autostick again. This isn't my first Chrysler product with an Autostick, either, and I almost never used it in the other cars for the same reason.
