Yes Whoopsy, you do get a small part of that connection when driving PDK in manual, which is why I find it much fun. But it is no way near as involving as with the manual gearbox. Even with PDK in manual you don't necessarily have to think, just keep pulling the paddle until PDK stops shifting down...

 

Funny thing, when I drive the RS, I uses the gear lever for shifting, I despises the tiny peddles that has a mind of it's own on the steering wheel. The gear lever never try to escape whenever I want to use it.

On the 918 I don't have that luxury, so I skip shifting myself all together.

 

Porsche's paddles are much too small. For some reason they insist on going their own way when it come to shifting on the steering wheel and they have failed miserably. Remember the buttons on the wheel?

Why don't they just acknowledge that the paddles on a Ferrari are more user friendly and adopt them?Smiley Germany engineering can't be that hardheaded. Smiley
