I don't understand why there isn't any more discussion about the 05 6MT coupe's. They are out now and can be test driven. Can anyone that's driven one comapre it to the 04 please?

Umm, there's not that much difference, some slight tweeks to the engine, different wheels/tires and brakes, but nothing really distinguishable. Why would you expect to hear otherwise?

if you're so interested, why don't you just go drive both? i don't think there is enough difference in the two models to bother.

I agree 100%.

I have driven both the 04' MT and the 05' MT, and there is almost no difference. Although the 05' has 298hp (18hp more than the 04'), it has 10ftlbs of torque less than the 04'. To be honest I would rather have the extra torque than horsepower.
