Oh well...... the search continues.
I've been through stock, shortened stock, B&M, Hurst, and now '07 C6Z. In my opinion, there is NO comparison. This C6Z shifter is far and above better than anything else I've run in my cars. The throws are plenty short enough, its very smooth, and the **** is the best I've laid my hands on. I'll never go back to the others after owning this.

To each his own, I guess. To me, it feels just like a stock shifter. The throws are not as short as an aftermarket shifter by any means. As was mentioned in this thread, I needed to try it for myself, and I have.

Thanks for all the great help guys !

Sounds like you don't really like it. I may be interested in purchasing it if you are selling.

I'll probably sell it if and when I get my next shifter. Looking to try the new #45044 Ripper here shortly.

Please keep me in mind if you go to sell and are looking for a buyer.

Thanks.
