I replaced a five speed Mustang with the 5 speed 9-3 convertible in Jan of 2000. The Saab has such a buttery clutch that it is easily bearable, even in stop and go traffic. The Mustang clutch was not. I have had loaners with the paddles and pure auto. As others have said, it is simply not the same. With my chipped T5, the third gear acceleration on ramps is just so much fun.
