May want to type "m6 vs auto" in the search box and see what you come up with. The end result of every conversation about this topic ends up like this:

Auto- if you want drag race consistency, ease of use, drive in heavy traffic.

Manual- if you want to be more in control of everything your car does, and if you do autocrossing.

It all comes down to personal preference.

I've had both, but wouldn't buy another auto performance car because I don't live on the drag strip.

Advice: If you have to ask which you want, get the manual, or you'll regret it.

Yeah, you'll have reading material for days. Test drive both and pick what you want based on your wants and needs.
