[Tigers] 5 Speed Conversion and Top Loader

I have a contrary opinion here.  I've driven a lot of manual cars in my
life, all with completely different shifting mannerisms.  I have to say
that the rifle bolt click click of the toploader is a wonderful experience
all to itself.  Yes, I've driven various T-5s, and sure, they are nice in
their own right.  But to me the toploader is a unique experience I enjoy
every time I drive the car.  For that reason alone, I'd stick with the
toploader.   Heck, I'm driving the Tiger for its unique drive.  If I was
going for all out performance and flexibility, a Honda Civic Type R would
blow away the Tiger.  But, I'm not driving the Tiger for that.

Admittedly, I don't do a lot of freeway driving.  Even when I am, the Tiger
seems fine.

(FWIW, I am on a waiting list for the Civic Type R, but that's a different
story).
