Is this an issue? How many cases have there been compared to other S55 engines?

But 3 months into owning the M2C and the car's auto rev-matching has basically destroyed all my good habits. It feels weird to double clutch without gassing it in neutral to rev match, but if I do give it some gas, the car pretty much just straight up calls me an idiot and says "ohhh, you were looking for THIS amount of throttle, you f**king rube" before the gear selector slides into the lower gear. |

That's really hard to watch. I money-shifted my then-new E46 back in the day and it was a very expensive lesson learned. Let's just say I never "slammed" gears after that.

M2C is pretty easy too, up or down without clutch. Ease off gas, pop into neutral, quick blip and let syncros work then it will drop into gear. quite satisfying. |

Thanks for sharing that bad experience; not funny but informative. I've never witnessed one but it is one of those things that always sit in the back of the mind of those of us who row their own gears.

According to the Instagram post of the video, the revmatch feature is what caused the RPMs to go so high. Did he even let the clutch out?

Its weird but it is physically impossible to get past the solenoid directly. Heard older Corvette's also have mechanisms that prevent skipping a gear on down shifting, ie can't go from 4th directly to 2nd; gotta shift first to 3rd then down into 2nd. |

Not sure about the downshift stuff with older cars. I am pretty sure it doesn't exist in C6 and C7 though. I sometimes wonder why no one has offered a sequential style shifter. Maybe I'm in the minority, but I don't find paddles very intuitive. I also don't like the weird, tiny, stubby +/- shift mechanisms on automatic cars. |

Google proper hand position on gear selector. This could have also bee avoided doing that. Sorry OP, hard pill to swallow.
