I did a test last night with GT5P. Indeed it does visually change gear with automatic setting, but ONLY when you drive a car with the H-gear like the EVO IX, M3, etc.

If you drive a car with the paddle shift like the Ferraris and the GT-R, the hands won't move weather you drive auto or manuel.

 

 

Exactly, as I mentioned there is no need to move the hands with tiptronic/dual-clutch paddle shifted transmissions.

EDIT: I watched the video of the Porcshe GT2 racing in Forza 3, and that generation of GT2 only came with a 6 speed manual. So yes, Forza 3 is infact missing the shifting animation, unless the person was playing on automatic and the devs actually put in an automatic transmission for that car, which would be lame and unrealistic. I don't think its in auto though because you can see unnecessary upshifts and downshifts and burying the redline, so I'd hope its on manual mode, or else the Forza 3 automatic mode is just really shitty and needs to be fixed.
