2002 + Si's Gearbox

Im interested in buying a 2002 SI but i dont know if i would like rally style gearbox. Is there anybody that could give me some input on wether they like it or not and how comfortable it is to have in the dash rather then in the usual spot

I have never driven an Si but I have read magazines praising how the position makes the shifter natural to use.

When I test drove the Si I was afraid the position would be a pain, but after experiencing it I honestly wish mine had it in the same position.
