Default trans swap

alright here is my question.
i was just looking into full engine swaps that come with the trans.
unfortunatly i have an Automatic.. and i know having a manual has bigger
advantages.

My question is whats it worth to change from a auto to a manual?
has anyone heard and or got it done before?

other than doing a manual what other options do i have? like maybe sports shift or like the semi auto things you see on like the aston martins.

lot's of people do a auto -> manual tranny conversion.....you will have a car with better acceleration, and better mileage, the parts wont cost you much, but if you're not installin it yourself, you're lookin at a 500-1000$ installation by a mechanic not including parts.....i've never heard of anyone using tiptronic tranny ever...
