interested in purchasing a c230 kompressor between 2002 and 2004. ive heard that the gear changes are "rubbery" and "ambiguous" and will limit performance and fun. is this true? i have yet to test drive one

firstly you will have trouble finding a decent stick shift version since 95% of these cars are automatics. I have an 05 6 speed and it is fine. The throw is a bit longer than a typical Honda or Mazda stick shift. similar to a 90s BMW. it is 100x better than an old 911.
