I wish TWM Big Type R comes with Knurled Edges like the R8's shift knob. That will work for me.

I'd like to see how big or small the knob is when you grab it with your right hand.

You need to take a pic with your left hand or have someone take it for you.

I never did understand the TK knob craze, they are good for weight(heavier than these for sure) but beyond that I never had any interest at all.

Let me also give you my input on the weight issue in case it helps. I've driven a 370z w/ a TK knob and obviously my own with the copolymer knob(lightest of the WC knobs) and IMO the weight made no difference whatsoever since there's so much inherent resistance in the shifter. I've definitely driven some cars where it helps but in this car I saw no difference at all. To each their own but I hope that helps.

weight does make a difference.

also a knob can make or break an enjoyable ride.

If you want more weight, get the stainless steel version. Weight is listed as 526 grams. $75 vs TK price...

For some transmissions I'd agree, but on the 370z's manual I see little/no benefit to it.
