I get the general impression UK owners prefer AT (having, by and large, been brought up and passing their test with MT's). Some will always prefer more control of course, but in general it's the US guys who seem more passionate at having an MT. Perhaps they generally pass their test on an AT so having an MT is additional kudos/shows a better ability to drive? This F30 is my first AT and whilst i can get some control with the paddles, I'm so happy not having a clutch!
