the big advantage of a manual transmission is that it has gears in it instead of a torque converter, so unless the tranny you are looking at is one of the few that really does shift between gears with dual clutches.
the only the reason that an automatic might get better mileage then it's manual counter part is that some manual trannies are geared towards the sport end and not the mpg end, and that some automatics are geared higher but can kick down if more power is needed.
