I went with a Momo F16 in red (matches the interior). What can I say, I've got a little rice in me. BTW, the F16 has a great feel, but it adds about an inch back to the height of the shifter.

I would reccomend getting a ball-shaped or ballon shaped shifter that screws as far onto the shaft as possible, that way you keep your shift throw as short as possible.

Actually, if you put a Momo shifter ****, you'd have a little pasta in there...not rice. Momo is an Italian manufacturer. :smash:
