Some models the paddle shift is optional.just wondered if all 7Gtronic gearboxes had gear shift leavers on the steering wheel?
whats really the difference between the button system and the leaver system found in say the cl63 or clk350 sport for example?
Why does anyone want to change up or down.? Just buy a car with plenty of torque and let it do the thinking.
did the 06 Clk 280 sport come in 5 or 7G form?
Flappy paddle shifters are good for true manual mode. Otherwise the left/right action on the gear selector is fine for the occasional donwshift for enthusiastic overtaking
I prefer my right foot for that....
I've been told if you hold the gear shift left, or the downshift button down for a second the cars chooses the most optimum gear for acceleration, which with the 7G can be more than 2 cogs. It certainly creates an effect, but I often find it a bit more of a mess and rarely need the extra oomph that this gives.
