I find most new cars are too fast in 2nd, which makes the 1st to 2nd gear change awful in normal traffic. This is the most annoying thing about my GTI, gear spacing everywhere else (and in all my other cars) feels much more natural.

2015 Golf GTI: 63 MPH at the marked redline, 70 at shutoff

1999 C5 Corvette: 78 MPH 

2006 Honda CBR1000RR: 114 MPH - and it can go from stationary to there and be safely stopped within a Kroger parking lot.
