no real reason to use the paddles unless you are on a track. For daily driving, the car upshifts better than you do (if you don't want it to shift early, press the gas pedal further...), and downshifts as fast as it can when you press the gas.
So about the only time it is useful is when you want to be in a specific gear as you slow down your car. And just about the only reason you would be doing this is because you know a corner is coming up and you want to be in a specific gear and so you are able to gas smoothly as soon as you get off the brakes without waiting for the torque converter. |
