I've had stock, B&M Ripper, C6 and now the MGW.

The MGW is by far the best shifter yet. Absolutely beautifully made.

No you don't.

I had one in my Saleen which is why I decided to try the vette model.

I've got a bad wrist that acts up a couple times a year. The Ripper was just too much when it did. The MGW will be fine. When you see how these are made youll think they should cost three times what the Ripper does.
