Yes on all counts — but there must be something off on the timing occasionally. I guess practice will make perfect. I’m sure I’ll have chances to flog the car at Spring Mountain and hone the technique.
Have had an issue intermittently when NLS. Only has happened in the first to second shift, but I let the RPM’s get up close to redline, NLS to second, and second gear won’t engage. Meaning, it’s like the gear shift is locked out of going into second. Only fixed by letting foot off the gas and...
I’m at just under 7000 miles. Noticed there is condensation inside my driver’s side tail light. Also part of the plastic dash appears to be flaking up on a corner — just discovered that one this weekend. Not pleased with either - both should be warranty work but what a pain in the rear.
