Default Any word on the shifter?

Shorter throw? More precise?

Good topic. I've seen Jay Leno mention the excessive long throw of the C6 shift lever, GM might listen to him...

I hope so! The benchmark is the s2000. I shortened my c5 (cut/reweld) and it was a lot more enjoyable to shift.

In a weird development, Jalopnik is reporting that it has been spotted protruding from the middle of a rock on the surface of Mars:

I'm sure George at MGW is waiting to get his hands on a C7 to see how much different it'll be then what is on the C6. I've put about 5 of his short throw shifters on Z06's for my friends. Great product!

The stock throw on the C6 Z06 is a joke, had to change it out.
