I like to roll back and catch it, then roll up... I get bored sitting at red lights.

That, and I like to roll back a little as traffic is coming up, then roll forward - shows them I may need the space/gives me a buffer zone.

Wait, wait... what? You just pull, your left foot can pretend all it wants. It's just like a video game when using paddle shifters.

Honestly I thought I may have a problem when I drove the F430, but when asked if I wanted paddle or AT, of course I picked paddle and it was a cinch. I don't think my left foot knew what was going on and just stayed planted.
