Auto-trans. reliability if paddle shifting

mark1963

I agree. didnt mean to compare a jazzed up mitsubishi to a z car. My knowledge of cars is a little limited to generalities. I just got my z, and i got a little over zealous driving it this first week. I was concerned about a break in period, which i didnt follow 100%. I had a 2011 accord coupe v6, which had started to make some noise from under the front end (sounded a little like cv joints). Anyway i traded the accord on the z rather than deal with it. Also i didnt like front wheel drive. i think i felt like the noise may have come from the paddle shifting, so i guess some of my comments/anxiety is i dont want to damage my new baby. I am at 600 miles now, so i am going to stay under 4k rpms until i hit 1200 mi. I got on it pretty good a couple of times and i hope i didnt hurt anything, dang i got the new car jitters. Do any of you still park far away from others in parking lots. He He
