I mean that it has, in a sense, a predetermined shift pattern, where 1st gear is short, 2nd gear is fine, third gear drags out to long into to high an RPM, and fourth gear and up are fine. What I meant was when I drove with the paddles, unless I shifted at these same points, it was a very harsh shift. It supposedly has adaptive shift such and such, but I never felt like that was the case. IDK what to say about it honestly, but it did feel quite a bit faster than the manual.
