What's a good transmission deserves a separate thread. But just on the surface, do you like a snickety snick transmission like the S2000's or a scrunch transmission like the Evos? Or something inbetween like the 911's 997 Aisin?

I used to think the S2000's transmission being the bee's knees, but now, I find that it's a little clinical, and a scrunchy transmission (best I've used is the Evo X 5-speed) wow!
