I've found this is easily remedied by quickly double clutching. To neutral, clutch out, rev slightly, clutch in, then going back in gear. This is for 1--->2.. I only say rev since your revs drop.

I used to shove gears in my last car. Seems the resistance is the same in this car.. and the remedy works great.

My deal-breakers are:
1. Interior - Needed to be BRZ limited. Seats and tech most importantly.
2. Needed the bi-xenon headlights (so BRZ).

That's about it. The tail lights were probably the first thing I upgraded. I hate dated lights and dated interiors

Anything else, usually OK for me.
