and btw, the shifter's +/- is not really for spirited driving shifting, cuz it doesn't stay in full manual mode. that only works with the paddles

It's impossible for every paddle to feel the same unless they're constructed from the same material, the buttons have the same spring rate, same traveling distance, same size, and positioned at the exact location for every car. Not to be anal, but every little detail counts. In fact, from personal experience, I can tell you not all paddle shifters feel the same. Some feel like plastic toys attached to the steering wheel, some feel way more sporty.
I've never said the SLR 722S is a "special" car or not. I'm using it as an example of a Mercedes car designed for sports car enthusiasts. If my project requires 2 examples, the SL will definitely be my other example.
I'm not sure on what you mean by not staying in full manual mode... I don't own a Mercedes... elaborate please :P?

porsche only brought back gear lever +/- shift on the PDK. the steering wheel controls on the PDK is even more fucked up, push in to up shift and pull to down shift.
