Question Auto with paddle shifters

I recently sold my 2001 S2000 and bought a 2015 Honda Accord Coupe V6 EXL Navi with auto Trans and the paddle shifters, The paddle shifters are a blast. The V6 redlines at 6800 rpm and is a blast to shift through the gears w/o a clutch

Congratulations on the new ride, but yeesh, IMHO, nothing without three pedals under the dash qualifies as a "blast". I suspect after a few weeks you're going to start missing stirring your own gears.

While I agree a manual is fun to drive and do miss it in a daily every now and then.

I also admit that in the "2 mph parking lot" on the way to work the auto trans is less work on my bad knee.

Got any pic's of the new ride......I like shinny things

i had a 2012 v6 accord coupe with the same setup auto trans with paddle and buttons on the shifter *** all time fave car. Was fully stock bought in montana originated in hawaii of all places. 0-60 in like 6sec (i may be off on that its been awhile since i timed it) ended up hydrolocked and repoed but imma get another one and maybe get it tuned etc. Buddy of mine said he beat another one that had a 2stage while driving mine not sure i believe it fully but it was a sleeper in my opinion. Thing handled snow better than my moms equinox.
