I would suggest just buying the skip shift eliminator, it was worth it.

Skip shift is one of the worst things I have ever experienced in a car, other than drum brakes, but $25 and its gone. I drove a test drove 98 WS6 and never heard of it before. I damn near destroyed the shifter trying to get into 2nd gear, The salesman had no clue, said to park it in the service drive when we got back. its unnatural.

Does the new Camaro have a skip shift light? In the Fbody's the light still comes on even with the eliminator unless skip shift is programmed out.........not a big deal but i have heard some bitch about it.
