You must be the only person complaining that it won't have an automatic.

Honestly, most people complain there aren't any manuals on the market. Granted, overall take rate is like 6%.

the huge majority will go faster in a slick shifting 6,7 or 8 speed auto especially off the line ...

and

its very difficult to correctly and consistently row a 6 speed (manual) in a car with lots of power

again especially off the line

but the most important thing is i dont wanna shift in traffic as a daily driver

Agreed! Heck, I look at other cars in this segment, and could easily see Toyota offering this as both a 6 speed manual or automatic with paddle-shifters.
