Personally, I listen to my engine and shift when I think it is time. I don't really pay all that much attention to the tachometer.
I've never thought of my car as something to "red line" or even push hard. When I leave a red light, I know I'll be the last to get back up to speed (compared to the other cars around me). I'm OK with that. I purchased my Versa as an economy car and drive it gently.
