Do the paddle shifters on the Sport automatic approximate manual shifting? If you have them on your Fit do you use them often? Do they provide the kind of control you could get with a manual? Do they have an effect on gas mileage? In other words, do they serve a real purpose or are they just a gimmick?

I am getting very close to getting a Fit Sport and need to make a decision very soon. Seems like a nimble little car like the Fit was built for a manual trans. Why not have some fun driving it? Or do the paddle shifters give you that feel of control?

Thanks!
