Default Short throw shifter
Does anybody have a short throw shifter on their C6 and if so, do you like it or not so much? I looked at one and it somewhat sparked an interest.

Thanks!

I had a Hurst-Junk
Then a B&M - Junk
Then an MGW, best shifter I have ever owned in any car.
I just feels right.

I installed the MGW this past spring into my 07 and have been surprised at how much better it performs than OEM.

You will read about how it takes more force to shift but for me I hardly noticed the difference. What i did notice is that finding a gear of choice is much more percise.

Good product.
