I've had experience with the WRX shifter and I have to agree with the "notchiness" comment. Sorta long throw (compared to the Hondas), takes a bit of effort, and really isn't anywhere as refined and smooth as you can feel the shift forks engaging in a clunky fashion, but they're very accurate.
In a car where the shifter basically pokes right down into the tranny, poor shifter action is inexcusable. And doubly so with an engine that demands frequent shifting.
The shifter in an S2000 is wonderful, but it SHOULD be wonderful. The shifter in a Civic Si is a miracle.
Any update on the FR-S?
