TIP-TRONIC TRANSMISSION

Wanted to get this off my chest for a brief---

Walking past sports sedans or coupes, take a peek inside, see a leather shift boot and a knob, resembling a manual transmission...
Then, closer scrutiny reveals, on the side of the boot,the letters R-D1,N, etc.

It's an automatic transmission! "Tip-tronic"? Shift with it?...NOT! Marketing hype.

If you don't depress a clutch pedal, deep-six that boot and knob.

And to actually own a car with a sport suspension and put on that facade...

This should be outlawed.
