But then when I read it forced upshifts at the rev limiter and would refused downshifts, that was a deal breaker. I guess I will be getting a three-pedalled car again afterall.

This. When its about being fast, a good paddle shift setup is what the doctor ordered. Just about fun? 3 pedals is the more involving option. In a great car it's akin to whacking off yourself as opposed to getting a really good hand Job.
