The 6MT is the "fun nostalgia" version but as the quick winning competition car, that ended for the manual transmission in the 1960/1970's Muscle Car Era.
Because there's not a regular non-competition AT car, so basically any auto car is competition and that's a marketing ploy. Especially that it's just turbo boost higher, once the DME is broken in you will be able to dial up boost on either AT or MT
