[Overdrive]

rteichman, you let me know if you ever get truly tired of that Esprit, I think I can help you part with it should that time come. I'm curious what in particular sucks about the shifting, if you wouldn't mind...

And maybe I'm wrong for doing so, but I'd lump shifting feel/effort into ergonomics when it comes to a car, kind of like keyboard/mouse placement at a desk. Take my Boxster, the gearshift movement is fine but the clutch feels higher effort than needed...certainly not the worst ever, but I'd prefer it to be less.
