Yes, and you can make it happen on demand when going slow and hold the downshift for the two seconds and then as soon as you see it show that it's downshifted, but before you feel it you tap it up one gear. It briefly drops it into first and the engine sounds mean through the NPP. The older Cobras don't hold a candlestick to it and I really like their tuned exhaust sound.
