I've always, and I mean always, been a fan of mashing the pedal and letting the car shift of you. In this car though, the second and third gear pulls in M mode are brutal.
I feel like the car shifts perfectly but if you just shift it yourself a millisecond earlier than when the auto would do it, you get this extra kick in the ass and then it just goes bananas. It's almost like the auto takes it a few RPM too high before it shifts. It's such a filthy pig of a car. |

I love it too. I noticed however that the second/third gear's power delivery is a bit lumpy. Do you find that to be the case as well?

I agree it is in "auto". I've tried to figure it out and in my ride if I'm WOT and mash the shifter at 5500-5600 rpm the delivery is very linear. No down rev, almost like rev matching shifts.
