Thanks to a throttle blip function, it also will accept downshifts up to 7200 rpm.
from: http://www.popularmechanics.com/cars...drive#fbIndex4

so i guess that's why some reviews says downshifts were ignored. the next lower gear might have been above 7200 rpm. not quite redline, but close enough. knowing how freely the engine revs, i dont blame them for making it this way. there more info that comes in, the better this AT sounds. IS-F based or the IS-F tranny with 6 speeds? heck yeah i believe it now!
