u mainland or island ??

Guys, ive got something to share about the Optima auto transmission. I did a test yesterday. I made the following conclusions:

1) If you use the paddle shifters to manually change gears, the gearbox automatically up shifts when the RPM is high enough
2) If you use the gear itself (+,-), the auto upshifts are only for the Gear 1, 2 & 3 while it will hold at either 4,5 & 6 unless you upshift yourself
3) I found the acceleration in the first 3 gears is better using the gear shifting compared to the paddle shifters

i was quite impressed with the acceleration using the gear shifts as compared to the paddle shifters. I think it really harnesses the 163Hp and 198Nm of torque available (at its set RPM's).

Has anybody tried this before?

DAMN! I want to buy a K5..

now comparing Teanna and K5, opinion please?
