Mine does not feel clunky when I shift. However, the OEM trans and diff bushings are rather floppy and flex a lot. Whiteline makes inserts for all of them that tighten things up nicely. Plus, I put better fluid in both.

The crickets are a feature of the high pressure fuel pump. Some people never get them, some people do. I did, then I put 2oz TC-W3 two stroke oil per tank and now it idles smoothly and quietly.

Whether you buy new or used is up to you. I bought new because the dealer had awesome finance deals and because I needed a treat after a large number of genuinely shitty years. The depreciation was worth it because I'm not trading it in any time soon and I got a car how I wanted it, instead of what was available.
