    This is done at the dealer, they just ordered the DB9 part and swapped it.

    Grippy yet smooth. It doesn't have the kart feeling the 911 has, feels a bit heavier but not too much. More confortable yet feels like it wants to be pushed. The noise is of course amazing when the valve open, yet at low rpm it still has sort of a nice grunt.

    Stunning car, absolutely beautiful. But I do not get the ugly bulky steering wheel.

    Still looks much better than any Porsche wheel...

    Speaking of bulky, check the Bentley CGT wheel until this year...

    Sportshift is a must... Getting the hang of it now.

    I will probably never buy another manual car if this type of transmission is available.

    Scifrog, how much did the wood cost you? I am thinking of bamboo for mine as I have green and beige (can't remember the Aston names for them) interior.

    Re: AMV8 Roadster Sportshift is here!

    $1,500 plus labor... Dealer was nice enough though, as we did it before delivery, total cost was only $750 (paid full MSRP though as for all new AM orders)...

    Bamboo would be a nice touch on your gorgeous car (seen in the other thread) but remember it is only the facia and not the doors also like in the DB9.
