Yeah, that's why I put them both in there because we already had a major conversation about this. I tried to avoid a repeat performance.

Yeah - different transmissions. I know that doesn't necessarily mean they'd me different, but it also means they wouldn't necessarily be the same.

The V6 has an Aisin-Warner unit and the V8 has a tremec unit.

Funnily enough, That tremec t-56 was originally designed by Borg-Warner - the same company that Aisin USA partnered with to create the Aisin-Warner unit in the V6. So they're like half-siblings.

Same dad, different momma.

My favorite was on my M3...it was on the shift knob..but was lighted at night...very cool.

I thought the same thing. I'm the driver of my car. There is no other driver.

Those are really good pics, XanthosV6. You can clearly see the console quality, as well.
