Having the car shift gear by itself even when it's in manual mode does suck. I used to bounce Rev limiter all the time on my 2is. sounded really nice having an exhaust.

I just tried it last night and my 2016 is350 does not shift when traction control is off. To be honest it sounded great.

Im guessing early 3is's you can't bounce the Rev limiter?? Why would lexus do this? Is there a way you can program the car computer to not shift gear in manual mode??

1st year issues i guess. They seem to have made noticeable changes in 2015 model such as the ability to bounce off the limiter, ventilated seats, faster nav, and fixing the battery drain issues.
