Also in a 03 linear loaner this week... Posted by MisplacedYankee [Email] ![]() ![]() In Reply to: 2003 Linear loaner 5AT--what is this part? (pic)/review, Jason 0W-40, Sun, 13 Jul 2003 14:20:07 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
Didn't notice that part until you pointed it out. Surprised the block cover color changed! What was wrong with black? Now it is silver.
I 100% agree about the transmission setup. Really surprised there is no shift option at the AT lever. The steering wheel paddles are nice, but coming from a 5 spd its less natural.
Suprisingly I found the 02 Linear a bit quicker. Sounds strange, but this one seems a bit more laggy in Sport mode than the 02 Linear loaner I had 6 months ago. Must be the transmission change.
At any rate nice to drive an auto for the week. Very nice car given the crazy incentives they offer on this model. Well worth it. Very smooth - now I understand how the Linear drivers get all the speeding tickets - I was doing 95 the other day in this loaner and did not have a clue. The aero at least you feel like your cruising along fast....
