Hey, I'm a proud new owner of a 370z Touring 7 speed AT and just wanted to get some feedback from other AT owners.

When you guys are in manual mode, do you hold the gas down as you shift up through the gears and not let off or do you guys treat it as a "real" manual and hit the gas, let off the gas then shift, and then hit the gas again as your going up through the gears?

Mine is still brand new and under 100 miles so I haven't really done anything too exciting yet, but I've been holding the gas down and not letting off and shifting and it pulls HARD. I love it. Just wanted some feedback from fellow owners.

And does anyone else feel that the full auto mode is sluggish as hell? I mean, I realize there are 7 gears it's going through but I've had automatics before and it just seems really sluggish to me.
