The idea of having the shifter more to the left and up a bit is spot on! My last car was a slightly modded 2000 MX5. The shifter fell literally to hand when I moved right hand off the wheel to grab a gear up or down. Really miss that. I'm used to the shifter in the Si now however. Strangely, I made the shifter further to reach by replacing the shift knob with a Voodoo brushed alu knob. Comptech SS kit makes the shifts a bit quicker however. About 3 weeks ago I had the most fortunate opportunity to drive a 430, as in Ferrari, with paddle shifters. Whoa buddy. I have paddle shifters on my computer gaming rig for driving sims but nothing compares to the real thing! I hope the next revision of the Si includes proper paddle shifters. Doesn't the Fit even had an option for that?
