The problem is no other AZ6s have 6th gears that are any shorter...the S2000 has 0.762 instead of 0.767, that's hardly worth the swap. Dropping the 6th gear about 15% would be a nice compromise between power for hills and higher speeds and fuel economy I think.
If you're hardcore about saving gas, you can pulse and glide it, but it's obviously 10 times easier to just have a longer gear.
Maybe in a future model...
