I've owned 6 Vettes and the first five all had the MGW added but when I got the C7 I pledged online that the stock shifter was the best Chevy ever had on a Vette and said I would not add it. Well that lasted about 7 months and then I drove another C7 with it and the rest is history....

Very happy with mine too! The difference in shifting is as pronounced as that of their construction...

It makes the shift really satisfying. Snick snick. 7th takes a little force, but I rarely use 7th anyway.

Very worthwhile modification.
