However when I have forced myself to use the paddles almost exclusively and only use the console when necessary- it turns out to be rather fun and really nice to keep two hands on. But.. its sucks because where as the paddles can take over In drive, the shifter (obviously) can't. So there are a few times if thrown the car in neutral trying to up shift hahaha. Once used to it I think I use a combo. God I want to drive this trans w a turbo! Drove an is350 (beast in a silk coat) w this trans almost and it was sick
Oh wow. Another good reason to focus on the paddles. I didn't even think about the obvious lack of ability to use the floor shifter for override while in auto mode. I could see myself doing that upshift to neutral thing. That would be an eye opener.
