It sounds very nice. But I'm left watching the video and thinking "shift"!

so if you move the lever to S mode and then tap it rearward until the dash indicator says 1, it will still upshift into second gear at redline? That's not the way my 430 works IIRC.

Yeah, I was wondering if the car somehow knows the speed limit on the road and gives you the message and the beeping when you exceed it....
