If I am just going to casually pass someone, like on the interstate, I just use the gas pedal. If I am on a 2 lane road and want to pass aggressively I down shift with the paddle so I don't have the lag between putting the pedal down and having the computer decide how far it should downshift.
A couple of times I have floored it without manually down shifting and it felt like the car was searching for the right gear, it went down to 3rd, then was near red line so it quickly up shifted to 4th.
