welcome and congrats on a good car! the rev gear will come naturally after a while and parking too. take the parking slow. till today ( after 16000+km ) occasionally i still open my car door to gauge the distant to a wall/barrier when i reverse back. better that than a dent!

Welcome buddy!! When i get this car, i find my self lag of confidents in reverse parking. The driving position is quite unique. The back is hardly be seen. But after sometimes you'll get used to it...

Most AT cars have a slight lag in engaging rev gear. Its better to wait a while before stepping on the acc; to prolong transmission life. Likewise when shifting to D from P.
One theory with the slower response and rattling may be due to the shift-shock clutch.
And bro holy, please drive carefully and safely and not let your friend drive your car. Treat the car like your wife.
