Sweet blue! I agree with your analysis of the aluminum vs. piano black on a Silverstone full. With that said, I'm going aluminum. Like you, I was wow'd with it at the Austin BMW event. I thought the color of that car was Silk Grey--if that was the Silverstone, then I'm sold.
On your DCT vs. 6MT. I love the way a manual feels. I'm addicted. But, now that I am getting older there are times (stop and go on Mopac is one of them!) when I just want "ride" in the car and not "drive" the car. DCT it is...
