My only real beef with the transmission is that I can feel the torque converter if I don't floor it in 1st (e.g. from any light in moderate traffic) and that the shift up into 2nd seems delayed ever so slightly if you shift below something like 4k rpm (e.g. if I'm just rolling along in a parking lot).I'd be blown away if you didn't enjoy that 8 speed transmission. I've always preached manual trans as the way to go...then I drove a modern, fast shifting auto. Gone are the days of 'slush boxes,' this thing shifts faster than I can *decide* to shift, let alone perform the action.
What really sold me on it was the downshifting. In sport mode, it's aggressive downshifts seem telepathic.
