I have them...and don't use them. My car was on the lot at the dealer so I didn't custom order it but I figured the paddle shifters would be cool. Well I used them once or twice around the time when I got the car and haven't used them since. I do however use the manual shifting with the gear select lever occasionally. I find it easier to operate than the paddle shifters. For my hands the paddles on the wheel are set too far inward and it feels awkward to use them.

They do look nifty though!
