I seriously love that knob. Only issue I've had so far is the lead into 3rd sometimes tries to jump into 2/4. Otherwise, it's the perfect size and shape to grasp. And it isn't rounded enough on top that my hand slips off.

Then again, i didn't shred my stock knob like most people

Could be.

Does it have IRS or is it a torsion beam like the Fit?

Seems kind of dumb to have a "SUV" with torsion beam rear suspension.

if its a fit platform, i think it is torsion beam based. i think it's more a crossover than a suv? (and no i have absolutely no interest in buying this car!).

It's too bad you aren't on FB Ken. You would laugh at these people asking for ridiculous prices on OEM exhausts and base wheels.

Someone wants a grand for "370z dual exhaust, muffler, sway bars, springs."
