I can't get used to this pull push thing after 4 years in the Golf GTI. It's just not natural. I don't know why they can't have it the correct way like Mazda/BMW etc.

And yes there are paddles but when u turn the steering, they might be in the wrong position and at those moments I prefer to use the gear stick as I don't need to think which way is which. I can't always have my hands at 3/9 o'clock position like a F1 driver.

So after the GTI I swear that my next fun car will be a MT.

From Moto-san's info, you can switch em around (-down, +up to +down, -up), so that's not a problem.
