I think the paddle shifters are fun, but I have no experience driving a manual. I keep my car in D mode for normal everyday driving. When I want to have some fun, I put it into M mode and use the paddle shifters. It makes it feel more special and fun every time I use them

Yes and no. I like the manual switching but I find this tranny in this car doesn't like fast switching. It's like the clutch is still engaged a little and I have to rip it out of 1st to put into 2nd. 2nd to 3rd isn't bad and so forth. I would like to see a CVT tranny.
