Default Paddle-Shift??

Hey guys I'm bored so I figured I'd ask everyone this, what vehicles that are non-supercars come with paddle-shift manual transmissions?? I think the last year of the Toyota MR2 Spyder had them as does the RX-8 but other than that I can't think of any. Any ideas?

The m3 does if you get that option. I remember pontiac had a grand prix, I believe it was that had it a while back. Other than that, I don't know what other non supercars have it.

please keep in mind the differences between true f1-style shifted vehicles like the m3 and toy paddles like the pontiacs.

Yup. The 04+ Comp G GTP's have that little button. All it does is downshift the tranny when ever you want.
