1. It only feels that way. Trust me, there's a "Shiftronic" in the family from the very same people that supply the one for that Tiburon and it's in the Optima out in the driveway. There's no computer enhancements or increased throttle response when you shift over into the manual gate. It's just a better grasp on things rather than the "PRND2L" deal.

2. It still makes you switch. I dunno about you, but when I'm driving a manual, I want to switch the gears when I feel like it, not when some computer tells me to.
