Drove The 6 Spd

Definitely faster than the pos slushbox. Felt like a different vehicle all together...Reminded me of my old Chevelle the way it threw you into the seat. I guess that's where the Comptech suspension really shines.

After an extended test drive, I did not witness these "quirkey" clutch & other problems that have popped up in the posts lately. The car I drove had 19K on it, so maybe these little issues go away after a few thousand miles... Clutch was very light & the gears were relatively close. Could def use a short throw though.

Even got a chance to f with an S2000 who was riding my ass.

Overall, couldn't get a better car for the money, no question about it. But...after driving the used one, I think my dealer has a new 6sp w/Navi I'm even more interested in for about $28K. Maybe I'll bite the bullet...keep you guys posted.

I'm so frustrated always reading these cheap prices people mention for new 6 speeds with Navi. Every dealer I've ever talked with (many) never go below $31, used to be $33k though.

I still want to sell my white 6 speed and get another color and Navi. Put an ad in the paper again this weekend. Wish me luck.

FS- White 03 6 speed CLS 8500 miles, mint.

It's not just the white, I want the black interior too instead of the tan. And Navi would be fun. All the colors I'd want to repaint it would not go with the tan interior anyway.
If I can sell it then I may buy a beater or rent a car and wait til I can find a new or used 6 speed exactly like I want.
