Not sure if there is one available as I cannot find one, but just wondering if any company is offering a short throw for the new model or if maybe one for the outgoing 09 will fit since its essentially the same drivetrain and the shifter appears to be in the same place my 05 was, although it's been over 2 years since I've driven it. Anyways, I played with the shifter in one on the showroom floor a few weeks ago and yea it's nice and all but I need a nice short shifter like the hurst I had in my 05...that was great.

Also, for anyone out there with a GT, has anyone noticed wheel hop with hard acceleration? Wheel hop in my 05 was absolutely crazy, so I'm wondering if I'm going to need to replace lower control arms on this one too..

Lower "control arms" are so cheap, you might as well upgrade them.

As for the short throw....

hit up George at MGW ltd. He should be able to tell you if there is a short throw out there that fits.....more than likely it will be one of his.
