woow. modicum...I like that. Had to look that one up. Thanks for the new vocab.

And to 2Heaty: even if you don't speak English well like you said, I'm sure your native tongue has sentence structure as well. ex. "Hello there PERIOD My name is 2HEATY PERIOD I don't own an S2000, but I'm telling everyone I do so they'll think I'm cool PERIOD I need to learn to drive stick or spend an enormous sum of money to change the transmission to auto PERIOD I don't work or go to school, which is why my avg post per day is 9.8 PERIOD These are the days of my life PERIOD"

Perhaps you should tone down on the constant post of new threads for awhile. Peeps seem to be getting a bit agitated.

I just noticed your from Canada. So are these people here . Will I be seeing your GPW with tan on an 06 in Got Beef 2? According to Honda of Canada the 06 GPW is only offered in Black Leather or Black and Red Leather. Hence, FRAUD!!! You see what you're doing to the leisure time of the the people who understand and practice the concept of manual shifting?

P.S. I'm not a fan of the Got Beef video. Even though I'm Taiwanese, this video has shamed not just vietnamese people, but all Asians.

Unless you own cars with non-syncro gear boxes get off your holier than thou throne

Any fvcktard who can walk and chew gum at the same time can steer (notice I didn't say drive) a car with a modern gear box. As long as you get the lever near the cog you can shift these damn things. you don't need shlt for skills.

Hurley Haywood a Porsche driver who is better than you will ever be in your wet dreams prefers tip-tronic gear boxes and is faster in his lap times than with a traditional gear box.

Last time I checked the most advanced cars in the world use paddles , F 1.

Just because grandpa learned on a old style gear box doesn't mean innovation should end there. Hey guess what we have tv's we can hang on the walls now. Or should we stick to black an white tv's? Just because it's the way people have always done something doesn't mean it stay that way.

News flash, with paddles you can pick your own gears and shift faster than you can on a old style box. You would think this would appeal to you street racer types.
