That would be due to the shape - this knob has a fairly straight vertical edge. Compare to a more shapely STI knob and you'll see how they encourage different grips.

I could see myself using that knob to manually operate 6 forward Cogs and one reverse.

Depends.. I was looking at the red, but I'd be open to checking out the gunmetal and seeing what sort of deal would work. I've been cutting back on car mods for a bit... girlfriend has been visiting so all this Austin food has been paid by yours truly

For the time being, I've just been covering it with a soda can cozy that I use for my drinks. It's worked out to be an okay system in fact. Slip the cozy onto my drink so they don't rattle around in the cup holder, and when I head into the office and take my drink with me, I transfer the cozy to my shift knob.

It's not going to work miracles, but before even when I had my sunshade up my slammer was like touching the surface of the sun. Now sunshade + thermal bag and I can comfortably drive away without blowing on my fingers like a Grits n' Gravy at a Friday night craps game.
