My Aero is somewhat modified, but the clutch is slipping at just under 90k miles. I am the 2nd owner and I have no idea who the previous owner was and how well he or she handled the stick (lol), but the car was very well cared for and had low miles for its age when I bought it. I suspect that my tuning (just Maptun stage 1) might have something to do with it.
The shifter itself is not great - light years ahead of my former '01 convertible, but it is still pretty poor. I have installed all of the GS mods and it has been improved somewhat, but 2nd gear still crunches and 1st gear is still very balky. Guess that's what a GM tranny in a Swedish performance car will do...
