Almost cars with sequential shifting like this, which want to provide the sport feeling, like Mazda3, doesn't shift gear up when running into the red line. That doesn't weird, but the engine will cut-off to protect itself.
Some cars with higher tegnology can shift gear up automatically just like your Passat but some doesn't want this function because they don't provide the real manual transmission feeling.
A lot of difference for these two cars!!

Khun Nuay, another difference is direction of gear when entering manual mode. In Mazda 3, we need to pull toward the driver, while in VW Passat, we need to push toward the passenger.
So if I am driving Mazda 3 at high speed and want to shift down (to slow down or some how), I can use manual mode by pull it toward myself and shift up (-). If I forget that I'm driving Mazda 3, not Passat. Then I will push it toward the passenger and shift down. So the car (Mazda 3) will be in neutral which is quite dangerous in high speed.
I didn't mean which one is better. Just that I use Passat everyday, and when switch to drive Mazda 3, I found all these difference.

Khun yworr, I understand your point krub. I'm thinking that I'll also get confused, If I were you. Haha
for the direction to switch into Manual Mode, may be because the different nationality for them? I mean, in German, they drive in the right so the driver will shift toward himself for manual mode which opposite for Japan-producted car.
Thanks for a lot of information you provided.
