Personally don't like it and not refined in my book.

Mine also makes a clunking noise just backing out my garage and don't know if it's that damn Stillen exhaust making a noise or some type of drive train noise. None good. The tire noise with the sport package adds more and with so much noise going, it's hard to figure out exactly what is going on.

I hate the "it's a sports car, it's supposed to be like that" excuse.

Mine's not excessively clunky, but it's not as refined as other sports cars I've owned..

mine does it, but only for shifting from 1st to 2nd. i make sure i have the clutch in all the way before shifting. i noticed you can hardly hear it from the passengers seat tho.
