however in D if you go balls out it feels like it hesitates sometimes on when to shift at the top of the revs. if in manual mode you decide and can hit your shift points right where you want to.
easiest way to find out the difference is go to a drag strip and run once in D and the other in manual and see the difference. I never cared enough to do this myself based on feeling how the car shifted in D mode on the road when I first was testing this out myself.

If I got full throttle while paddle shifting that 1st click will pretty much be as soon as I depress the pedal correct b/c when I'm just day to day cruising I pretty much always up shift in half a second, 1st gear and 2nd gear seem to hit the limit almost instantly with average throttle.
