Wait for it. The SMG gang will start ragging on you for that one.

I agree that the throws are a bit long - certainly as compared to my E39 540. I had more luck than wolverine with the install of a short-throw shifter. No issues with the install or noise. The throws are now shorter, but they're still long-ish.

Welcome OnOn!

I have not got any rash from gear stick even movements are longer than what I got used to with my previous toy (rally car).
