Great board all.

I just picked up a new '05 6m coupe after trading my '03 5at sedan. Car seems much, much quicker even though I really havent pushed it much. Ride is much, much firmer (maybe even a bit to firm for my liking) but it is obviously very well connected to the road. I havent driven a stick for 10 years or so, but I guess it's like riding a bike, it comes back quick. Love the feel of the short throw shifter and the clutch has a nice firm feel.

Interior quality is a fair bit better than the '03 sedan and even over some pretty chewed up roads, I couldn't detect any rattles. Not sure about the seats though. I can't seem to find a comfortable driving position, but maybe its just going to take some time.

The freking car is hot looking.

Will post pics shortly.

 

The words I put in bold text is the reason for the difference in performance.

The sport tuned suspension package (standard on 6mt coupes) is the reason for the stiffer ride.

 

Good luck and hope upgrade performs even better.

 

Welcome Pmac, and congrats on the new ride.
