was down in LA for 5 days and Allen Gwynn found me an 05 black 6spd with the running boards for $500 over invoice. cancelled my flight and drove it home today!
few initial observations:
1) why didn't they put the radio controls on the left side of the wheel? seems like i hardly have my right hand on the wheel (have to shift, don't I?)
2) seals seals seals. it's been raining almost nonstop since i picked her up and anytime you open anything, water pours out
3) NOISE - how do i get these pillows people have talked about to quiet down the road noise?
4) rough idle? anyone else with the 6 spd notice that the gearshifter REALLY dances around? the worst part about it is that it makes a clicking noise (which I THINK is the pleather around it sticking/rubbing as it jiggles back and forth) that I REALLY need to get rid of... incredibly annoying sound
5) overall i love the new engine and tranny, but the exhaust doesn't sound quite as cool as the earlier model year i test drove last year
6) not the most comfortable seats when you're 6'3"
7) i feel like I paid $1900 for heated seats!!!
still a big smile on my face
will take some more as soon as the rain stops!!!
