The tiptronic in my 2004 2.7 changes up at absurdly low speeds in my opinion, so I drive in manual mode a lot unless traffic makes it necessary to use auto. And when in auto I use the manual buttons to change as and when I think it is better to keep the revs up. It is a pity that the tip transmission does not have a 'sport' mode like my BMW Steptronic had, which changed at higher revs that the 'normal' mode. I had to go with the tip because my wife can't drive a manual shift, and now she never drives it! The Boxster is much nicer to drive in manual mode, and I believe it is better for the IMS to keep the revs up - so I do.
