On second thought, there's a lot of clutch pedal travel to the floor, i.e., there's a long distance between the default position to where the pedal hits the floor.

Unfortunately the AWD does not get the other option that is only available for the sport 6MT

A few more comments:
1) According to the owner's manual, the shifter is considered a "short shifter." That's good enough for me.
2) The 6MT does not have the drive-seat-automatically-moves-for-you-when-you-enter-or-exit-your-vehicle feature. Sucks!
3) I just discovered that you can lock your doors with the button on the door handle.
I love Intelligent Key SO much. Too bad you can only open your windows by holding the UNLOCK button. To close windows, you have to pull up the key from the key fob and stick it into the keyhole and turn.
4) The Bose system is growing on me. I still feel it's not as satisfying as my cheap aftermarket system in my Mazda6, but the sound is still very full, rich, and warm. It fills the cabin very well, especially since the cabin MUCH quieter than my 6.
5) I find myself shifting like crazy! I would be driving down a 25mph street (possibly going 30-35mph), and I'm already in 4th gear!
