Re: vibrating shifters

The BRZ, as with other Subarus and most FR layout cars have the shifter mounted directly to the transmission. You're going to get vibration. There isn't a long, bushed linkage or cables to filter out the driveline's vibrations. You will always have more stick shift vibrations with a car like this than a FWD or transverse-mounted AWD car.

Look right in front of the side mirrors on the picture. It is that chrome line on the fake fender vents. Normally they are the body color. I ordered chrome as well to go on my DGM and I think it is going to look sweet.

I talked to my dealer and reminded him *many* times that I'd "take care" of the front license plate mounting myself, and I'd like the car to delivered with no holes in the front.
