I understand the fun factor of a manual gearbox, but I'm not buying justifications beyond "I like doing it just because it's cool".

None of us are F1 drivers, where those milliseconds on the shifts etc actually matter. If you enjoy driving a sports car on a twisty then there is a real satisfaction you get from shifting your own gears, I think it makes the whole experience more engaging. If you like paddle shifters then cool, but lots of folks enjoy the experience of a manual.
