The only paddle shifted manual transmissions outside of Ferrari, Maserati, and Lamborghini that I know of are the e46 M3 and the Toyota MR-S. Everything else is just an automatic transmission with some kind of buttons/paddles/flippy shifter thing.

I would however have paddles though, those are badass, not as fun, as in the act of shifting, as a stick, but alot quicker shifts and just damn nifty

How would shifting gears be fun w/o the clutch? 
tiptronic, steptronic...or whatever its called, depending the car maker, has been around for decades.
Even the 1995 Honda Accord base model has it. Just shift it to #1, and change as please.
I used to drive mines around like that for awhile pretending i have some awesome car
I was young back then.
Other manufacturers use Tiptronic-like systems under different names:
Acura: SportShift
BMW: Steptronic
Infiniti: Manual Shift Mode
Jaguar: Bosch® Mechatronic
Lexus: E-Shift
Mazda: Sport AT
Mercedes-Benz: TouchShift
Mitsubishi: Sportronic
Peugeot: 2Tronic
Saab : Sentronic
Smart : Softip
Volvo: Geartronic.
