Garage List
2008 BMW 335i  [10.00]
70% manual
25% D
5% DS

DS is great for having fun.. but I like being in control.

I use the paddles in both D and manual mode. In manual mode, I use them on canyon-type roads with many curves, and in regular Drive, I use them when I feel like the transmission is in the wrong gear (for example, going up the 1.5 mile hill to my house, the car stays in 5th -- and causes me to SPEED --so I upshift)
