The tq converter can do that, my experience driving an auto 370Z was that just like every other auto, it sucks. It cannot understand what the human mind is thinking when you barely tip into it, but do so fast. Do this in a manual, and all is well. Do this in an auto and you get: nooothhiinnngREVGOclunkcruiseupshift.

I hate autos of all sorts.
