MGW Shifter on new Z06
I just installed an MGW shifter in my 2011, Z06 with 3000 miles, I knew there must be something better than the stock (stirring peanut butter shifter). The MGW in way better that I expected, very confidence inspiring, low effort, short throw, no missed gears, feels like a jeweled rifle bolt. Shifts like a sports car should, really fun to run through gears now.

I love my MGW shifter. It's a quality product, and it makes driving the car THAT much more fun. I drove a friend's 2009 Challenger SRT the other week, I felt like I was rowing a boat...

MGW in Z06
Used stock ****, stock height, stock boot, looks factory, the only change is it works like a shifter should. No rattle either, very neat, so glad I changed. Makes a great car greater.

MGW in Z06
www.mgwltd.com. I think there is only one C6 & Z06 model, but George is very helpful, if you still have questions.

I'd also like to give this shifter a try but the road noise and rattling is whats stopping me.

I bought my 06z and the owner before me installed a Hurst. It rattles big time from 4-7k. Shifts great but the noise.......
I may have to invest into the MGW new improved shifter.

I love this shifter so much, if there is a rattle it's oblivious to me. My brother, dad and my friends notice how short the throw is.

I installed mine, instructions are included with the shifter. Installation is done inside the car, no getting underneath the car.
Hardest part is removing the center console, to get to the shifter assembly. Pretty easy installation.
