I've not felt the need to skip gears (only on occasion).

The low 4K-ish numbers are really the cutoff between grandma/fuelsaver driving and really driving in this car. If I'm just running around in traffic I shift somewhere in the 3000's to save fuel (and to give other drivers some repreive from the deafening exhaust note). When I'm having fun, I try not to let the revs go under 4K at all.
