Have fun with your car!!! You bought a BMW, freakin drive it, use m1, get pressed in your seat; put the peddle to the floor. You own an elite performance car, it is designed to be driven spiritedly! It's time to live a little or else you would be driving a Lexus

Can someone please enlighten me as to how to use the "Manual" mode in DS?
For example, I am at M1, at which point do I shift to M2? Should I rely on the rev or speed?

I've tried using it a few times and it always feels like I am over-reving the car (shifting too late).
And when I down-shift, it just feels wrong has the rev "peaks" and the car is being slowed too
artificially (does this damage anything?)

if you dont shift the car will shift for you automatically
