Agreed, but you don't step on the gas to match them on an upshift. Simply taking your foot off the gas and stepping on the clutch will bring the revs down to the range that will match the higher gear, unless you're on the clutch for so long that you go below that range. That's all I meant by being smooth.
Every car has a different feel. You just have to get used to it. When I take the TT back to the city after driving the Elise all weekend, I definitely have to make an adjustment. Last time I started right off stalling the TT!
