OMG OMG!! I have had my Nismo for 1 week and a day now. When I initially test drove it everytime I pressed the clutch the engine would rev and it was annoying, so I disabled S-mode.
Today I decided after doing some reading to see what the hype is all about. Again....OMG, OMG!! That is hella cool, the downshifts are super smooth. Before when coming to a complete stop, I would put it in neutral and coast or would select a lower gear that I knew the speed at the time could handle smoothly.
I heard some folks say the S-mode dumbs down the manual shifter or somehow the S-mode takes away from the shifting experience....that's a load of crap!!
Really cool innovation Nissan!!!
