For me, the car will go into limp mode when I use "S" on the track.

Never heard of that one before. Must be you, not the car.

Default Re: the paddles
The paddles are convenient for keeping both hands on the wheel, but I find they sometimes don't obey my wishes. If I change gear by the shifter I don't get this problem. Anyone else notice this?

Oh, yeah, I do occasionally use sport, but only when I'm really pushing it. I find it's quicker than manually shifting.

Default Being a Scot hopefully you didn't buy it for the gas mileage! ; )
Headed to Dunoon in March. I've been in the states for most of my life now so I don't sound very Scottish anymore. I'm even a former-U.S. Marine on top of that. Still call Dunoon home though. Cheers...
