I was surprised they didn't have these features in the S650...seems like a missed opportunity. Wonder if the seats (seat angle) and steering wheel are electronic. I was surprised on my 21 GT that it was still manual movement, and it has an old school CD player, but no on-board HD like my 10yo...
Because the GT500 has a DTC transmission. You use the steering wheel paddles for manual shifts and select AUTO mode for a simulated auto trans. The shift stick allows you to old school shift. I think really it's just to make the DCT feel more like a supercar.
