Hugh - you're correct - the downshift paddle is on the LEFT.

Byron, I wish you could find the link !

I don't have the link, but the article in Sport Car Magazine on the new 575 Maranello was much better... they claimed the car was probably the best sports car in existence...

Sounds like it, but I can't wrap my brain around this quote:

"Now, pull the satin-finish metal paddle on the RIGHT for a downshift and jam the aluminum gas pedal to the carpet."

Pardon my ignorance, but don't you downshift pulling back on the paddle found on the LEFT?
