I've seen that and commented on it before. Here's the gist of what I, and many that have seen it before, think about a **** that tells you what gear you are in:
a) It's cool for "student drivers" and "driver's ed." cars
b) It's cool for teenage girls
c) Your palm covers the LED numbers, so it's pretty uselss when you are shifting
d) Why do you need a shift **** to tell you which of six gears you are in?
e) What happens when the wire breaks/battery dies?--How do you know what gear you are in?
f) It looks longer/taller than most OEM shift ***** thus, making your shifts slower
g) It's not real carbon fiber thus, making you just long for real carbon fiber
h) It's cool for teenage girls...
i) Which Kragen's Auto/Target/K-Mart/Walmart/Safeway/gas station can I pick this up at?

Maybe if it worked with the auto's like D, R, N because whenever somebody gets in to drive my car they can never tell what its in and they don't know to look at the dash.

*it's cool for teenage girls. And it's the perfect compliment for:

I have it memorized too.. but people that get in the shifter doesn't just go straight back like most cars.. it looks like a race track going from park to drive - or the manual/auto mode -- people aren't used to that and they don't know what gear its in when they start moving it up and down and left and right...
