In all honesty, I don't think I am going to go back to the manual gearbox cars ever after all the fun that I had using the tiptronic. Mine shift flawlessly without any slipping or RPM increase between gears. It is a straight and crisp shift. As fast as the manual or possibly faster not 100% sure. Also the tiptronic ECU "quickly" adapts to my driving style whether I push the car or drive it onto busy street. It's almost instant. Really good fun indeed and of course, no knee pains in traffic jams or $2000 job to change the clutch

So much fun that I got the 320mm steering wheel with F1 style paddles. They are not on the column but it does the job extremely well!!!

No-more manual gearbox anymore for me ever. Finito!
