Personally...I feel like aftermarket shifters are TOO short. This is my own opinion for daily driving, now. A few options are adjustable, and the factory Hurst option seems is "just right". Shorter, crisper than the standard shifter, but not too short with that "aftermarket feel". 
(Plus, I like the stock shift knob. The badge is a nice subtle touch.)
EDIT: I spent some time playing with it on the 2011 car GM brought to the Camaro5Fest. I definitely plan on ordering the option.  |
This is the exact feeling I have on the shifter. the aftermarket is WAY to short, the factory is perfect. but my '10 does not have that option and to order it now its over $800
any thoughts?
