I put 3rd but 6th is kinda cool too for me, 6th and 5th both shoot lots of fireballs.

3rd because that's the only gear where this car actually feels like it has some pull and it's the best gear for the twisties by my house. 5th is a close 2nd place because well that's what gear I am in 90% of the time cruising around town.

2nd for sure. Taking 1st to 5K and then 2nd to 5K always puts a smile on my face when going about town on some of the bigger roads.
The only thing I don't like about 2nd is cold shifts.

I'd vote for reverse, but it's not an option!

3rd, already past the torque dip if she's revved up good and the perfect gear for freeway entrance ramps, only gear I feel pulls really hard the entire time.

2nd. It's the auto-x, tail wagging, snow/rain, still enough gear for a standing start, gear.

Hard to say... In the twisting I actually prefer 4th.
In daily use, I love the vanity downshift into 2nd as I heel toe through the gears to a stop lmao. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
