That's just the thing. The sales person told me not to apply ANY throttle when I released the clutch when shifting into 2nd gear. This actually smoothed out the transition from 1st to 2nd. Now this is just my experience from a short test drive so it's a very preliminary opinion but when I was applying throttle like a "normal" manual car (the way I was driving the muscle cars all day) I couldn't get the car to shift smoothly.
Once again, not trying to sound like a know-it-all just telling you how it was for me and that's it.
