Try shifting at or above 5k rpm. I doubt you'd do that with the salesman in the car. I did, and the guy actually told me I was scaring him. Must be used to selling Versas.

+1

The only way an auto should feel faster is if it's a PDK or something, or you are launching the manual from idle.

if you're going to settle on a car just get a toyataha
