If you drive in manual sport mode in the IS-F and is in a gear that's high and need to make an emergency acceleration, the transmission will not downshift for you. You have to actually select to gear manually. Essentially it will hold the gear you're in unless you slow down to the point where it must downshift for you. But for upshifts... happens practically immediately.
