Look at what he says in the description about the Civic Si: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/aw-cgi/ebay...1638874&r=0&t=0

 

haha.. If that's all it takes to get six gears, I'm going to buy it and engrave a little "7" right above reverse.

 

Dude, this is so lame.

I have to admit, I did the same thing -- I got an aluminum S2K knob for my Civic Si for a year before I got the S2K. Not because I wanted people to think I had 6 gears but because I loved the shift knob and I needed something to tide me over on the long wait til the magical land of VTEC. However, I did get lots of comments about whether my car had 6 gears or not lol.... sigh

 

Isn't the Type-R knob basically the same as the S2000's but with 5 gears? Maybe you should try that one.

I actually like the red lettering on it.

I wonder how many of these little pricks on e-bay steal a little collection of things like a shift knob and then market them?
