Default The 400 degree titanium knob
Nothing feels worse than getting into your S on a nice, hot summer day and having your hand melt into your shifter thingy. Anyone also have this gripe and a way I don't have to shift with 2 fingers?

Put a hat over the shift knob. I do that and it keeps the temperature on the shift knob lower than having it exposed in the sun. It still gets hot but its hot enough to be able to hold with bear hands.

You should get the 02 shift knob. I am very please with it. It has leather wrapped around most of the titamium. It still gets hot but not too hot.

Yeah, I have a Rick's black knob condom for my car ! The Ti knob is VERY hot during the summer and I drive much of the time with the knob sock until things cool down.
