Well, I pulled the trigger on it. I'll post some pictures of it when I get back out to the East coast.

I must say I liked SMG a lot, though I'll miss rowing now and then. It sucked if I expected it to work with the smoothness of a slushbox, but once I equated it to something doing shifting for me and expecting the pause, it was great. It's really only hard to drive if you don't treat it like a manual transmission.
