I saw an article, said the manual shift would be possible under acceleration (with-out) lifting, sorta auto-manual.
Anyone know anything about this?
Makes a stick kinda attractive.

If you look in the FAQs, it says, "No lift shift” allows the driver to shift the manual transmission without taking your foot off the accelerator. This segment-exclusive feature allows for the lighting fast six second 0-60 time."
