Don't know yet, but as it sits it is sloppy, at SEMA Lokar had a bunch of display units and although they did not have a C6 to play with, I noticed all of them had a nice firm shift pattern, click,click,click, mine doesn't have that and I addressed it with them and they said I may need to update the Spring/Pawl in the transmission as over time they wear and get a bit rounded over. But the 32" shifters they had on display definitely in my opinion would not pop out of gear the positions were firm and tight.

Really sweet, and looking at the floor where you have your gas pedal mounted, did you smooth out the floor some how? Looks nice and flat.

No changes were done to the floor, maybe the carpet on the side of the console makes it look that way?
