Paddle Shift

Like any other auto, you don't need to lift the throttle. Manual mode just means you are telling it when to shift, but the mechanics are the same as Auto

Yes, in auto mode under light throttle, the shifts are slower and smoother. I don't think shifts are any slower than other autos I've driven. I've also noticed that shifts are quick in manual mode under aggressive throttle. Kinda a jeckle/hyde thing.
