If Honda had the balls to release an Accord Si with a DSG-type transmission I'd poop my pants and make a deposit. As is, the ability to sit in LA traffic, sip coffee and talk on the cel phone simultaneously is a pleasure I often enjoy and wouldn't sacrifice - although I miss rowing gears like you don't know.

My buddy just bought a Subaru Forrester XT and I was green with envy watching him shift those gears. What a hoot.
