I rowed through the gears in a Gallardo Balboni earlier this year (not driving, just sitting) and ermahgerd did it feel so good! Just like Richard Hammond said on Top Gear: "it feels like shaking hands with an old friend." If they don't like to be shifted quickly though, that's a problem.

My Volvo S60 had that type of shifter... It was neat at first... Then I realized I was driving/owning a Volvo. I HATED that car. Horrible engineering outside of the engine/turbo. I could def. tell Ford had their hands in on making the car I owned.
