That sounds really strange. I myself don't own the 6 speed, howerever my good buddy (HDDP) does have the 6 speed. I will ask him today if he noticed anything like that. I know I didn't notice anything like you described, and I was just in his car yesterday. We both went do to the O.C. to check out the 2004-2005 International Car Show. There is some deffiinite head turners coming out for 2005.
