Not trying to be an idiot here, but what's the hype around these shift knobs? Seeing them on the used market for like $300, which seems like a mad price for a shift knob.

As good as the TK is, there are some other fine shift knobs available out there i.e. WC Lathe Werks.

Really? Well then. I've been eyeballing a new one myself. Someone recommended this brand: http://www.raceseng.com/auto/nissan/370z

Always wanted one but couldn't justify the price yet. I love the black turtle by far the best out of any of the colors they produced, that looks awesome! Ended up buying the "Fatboy Race Spec" knock-off from Grafixpressions for $90 shipped last week. No turtle but same design and super heavy and counter sunk for those looking for a cheaper alternative.

That's the one I've been looking at. Either that or the contour. Thinking of getting the transparent black and having the engraving painted in Solid Red to match the car.

Original Owner added the shift knob in the picture below. I think it's TWM & I love it.
