i would suggest a test drive anyways.

i got a fit not even knowing what paddle shifters were, and i love them, most AT owners on here like them well enough.

it's all personal preference, so i'd suggest trying it out for yourself, that way you'll know if you should go ahead with trying to get one.

personally I'm not a fan of paddle shifters in any car, I've driven Honda/acura paddle shift cars, bmw paddle shift cars and in either case they are slow to react. this is likely because I've been driving a stick for years, but it is a fun feature to be able to shift an auto yourself.

I'm not sure about the buttons, but I know you have to be in sport mode to shift the auto fit

Im a big fan of paddle shifters, they are a blast!
S mode is Sport mode, you can either paddle shift or S mode will hold the gears longer then in D mode. Take a test drive and check it out in person.
