my car has never seen actual "automatic/ D" mode.

everytime i get in my car its 1, 2, 3. start button, VDC off, manual mode.

regular daily commute and normal driving i use the shifter select

track/drag strip/back road or dragon driving - all get the paddles.

i love the fact i have the option of either. its much more comfortable with the shift knob for just normal driving and has the old feel of a manual driving position and yes i find myself accidentally moving my left foot at times lol

actually that is the only thing i dont like about the GTR is that its paddles only lol

Maybe I'm not making myself clear. Yes, my Z has seen the Red Line, I just don't think I've hit it without using the paddles.

At least you get air, I used to catch the break all the time. It's funny when people are in the car and look at me like WTF?!
