Good Shifter with Straightforward Installation
Night and day difference coming from a stock shifter, greatly improves the driving experience. This is how the stock shifter should have been in the first place, I actually enjoy shifting now. Can be a little tricky to install if you have seized bolts on your stock shifter base but not too bad at all. Make sure you read the installation instructions and have the correct tools before you order and install, one of the nuts that holds the white inner shift boot that you access from under the car is tricky to reach. Otherwise install was very easy. I ordered mine with the handle that accepts the stock shift knob and did have to file down the top of the handle to get the knob to press fit all the way on but don't think this is a common issue and was easy to remedy. Highly recommended.

Must have for M6 GTOs
Bought this for my 05 GTO. I've been using the stock shifter for close to 10 years and had no idea what I was missing out on. This shifter is great. No trouble finding reverse any more, shifts are positive and very short. I recommend this shifter to anyone with a 6 speed GTO.One note:Install was kind of a pain, their torque specs of "snug or 25-30ft/lbs." is broad. Definitely go with a little past snug and locktite as i broke two sockets attempting to get 25lb of grunt on the bolts.

noisy
Shifts real good but rattles at high rpm

Awesome
Really like how tight and firm it feels and paired with the Lou’s short stick the distance feels even shorter! Keep in mind this is designed with no centering springs so it doesn’t snap back to the middle like others. Takes a little getting used to but doesn’t bother me personally.

I bought this thinking the washer rattle was due to older versions or improper installation but I guess they all rattle. This shifter isn’t awesome for how expensive it is. Works fine but I’d consider replacing it if it wasn’t so hard to remove and install

Quality looks good. I haven't installed it yet.
I think it will work great. It is just one of many parts to a major project.

A must have for a Manual GTO
If you have a GTO, this is the best shifter you can buy. This is my 4th shifter I've had on my GTO and it is by far the best.
