to be honest....

...every since the six speeds came out, sum times I screw up to darlin...really ,ya just pay attention to the sound and look at the tach....actually 6th gear you dont use until highway speed...these have a 3 45 rear end (watch it !)

so it isnt a big deal...this car is very efficient...it will run up to 28mpg on a short jog on the highway. When you are in traffic,you dont have to hit every gear either...as long as the rpm is up a little you can shift up..its very easy to drive..it is very fine tuned gear wise...love it !
