wow. if i had an auto...i would just ACCEPT IT! brag to your 5spd friends that you can talk on the phone, drink a coke, or hold ur girl's hand without using your knees to hold your steering wheel while you shift! i can imagine that your shifter button will break long before it's supposed to- because its being used 100x more than necessary.
yeah-- i love down shifting in front of some bastad' thats ridding my ***!
