just drive the car!!! it's not meant to be babied. they didnt put 300 horses in a four door to sit there and roll like it's being pushed by my grandma. the engine and exhaust sound so nice, you should be looking to hit it at lights and draw stares.

btw, i drive barefoot. you should try that. talk about pedal feel! i never have had the car lurch, or whip anybody back, anything.

It will hold much higher RPMs before shifting and if your driving it hard itll keep it up in the optimum RPM range (powerband). Try it out sometime...

Thats not a great explanation, I know- just try it. You will see...

Wow! Very cool! I had no idea. I can't wait to try this on the drive home. Thanks for the excellent explanation!

I'm in DS 98% of the time. I shift back to D on the freeway... much lower rpms.
