Yes. One of the best features! And one of the reasons i chose the z over a genesis and Is350 .




Also don't let off the gas when you up shift. We have a "no lift shift" :P haha

well the older (like last gen ones, 2012 etc) one did...not only that it wont shift when you click the paddles. say if i were 1-2k below redline and shifted to cruise the vehicle, it'd hold the gear thinking you wanted to redline it.

it was honestly useless.

not sure if the brand new ones are any different but i doubt it.

It rides well, my friends FSPORT that is. Its quick, but $50K its down on power IMO. My genesis walks it. Handles pretty well too. Interior is...so so. Has the red leather seats, not my thing and its the only option on the FSPORT. Tech is ok, no where near what i have though. Its pretty though!! more than I can say for my , ahem, genny. lol.
