it goes back to shifting quickly if you lift a little when/while shifting

+1 on the men in black comment

as for highway/speed/stability.... who is the person that missed the point that this was a CITY CAR not a hwy gran tourer???

either way, it keeps up w/ hwy traffic just fine unless you're comparing it to an amg s class
