I am considering getting an ep3. I did some research and i like the way it looks. I am wondering how the placement of the shift **** on the dash feels. does it get annoying after a while or is it ok?

 

It's better than okay. You'll love the way it feels and you won't have to think at all to shift. You'll be used to it in 30 minutes tops. The only thing I noticed is I reach for the dash while shifting "normal" cars. Which is just funny.

BTW, selling my EP: http://www.hondamarketplace.com/zerothread/2205489

*My opinon on the shifter is not biased because I want you to buy my car. It's what I've said since first owning my EP.

 

damn your car looks pretty clean...

it's probably the best thing that honda did for the ep3!
and yes, you'll miss it when you drive a "regular" car!

it feels perfect to me, and i wish it was on my ES1 ('05 civic sedan)
*it gives you more space for stuff around the emergency brake area (like cup holders and a Storage area!)

Where were you a year ago! i could have saved about a grand!

...but if you really want a "CLEAN" car bulit184, you may have to travel, or you can get it shipped for around $800

i got mine from South Carolina to MN, shipped by a friend that owns a small dealership!

like Cake sings... it's worth- "Going the distance! Going for speed!
She's all alone, (all alone!) all alone in her time of need..."
because he's racing and pacing, and plotting the turns,
and thinking of someone who he still burns... (or something like that!)

 

I didn't have any trouble with the shifter being higher. It felt natural. Now going back to a floor shifter is weird though.
