I would like to interject some doubt into your desision for e gear. I traded my one month old g car with e gear for a new 6 speed. Its not that I did not see the advantage but there are some down falls. If you live in an area with a lot of hills and traffic jams you will have high cluth wear and an nagging feeling that you are not in control, because you are not. My new 6 speed is great, crisp clean and in control.
