Seems mad now that manual wasn’t a factory option on the CSL.
Fair play to him. Although some of the stuff the owner said I found a bit odd.
“I’m doing everything now, I don’t have to wait for a gearbox to decide what it’s doing next”.
That would make sense if you were describing an actual normal automatic gearbox, but SMG?
I do see where he is coming from. At low speeds, it can be a bit annoying at times. For example, on my parents road, I used to leave my old M in 3rd but in my dads SMG, it switches down to second and won't let you change up unless you accelerate a bit. Just small niggles like this.
