Is there anyone else like me out there? LOL

My GF can't figure out why I would order a 65$ shift knob just because its cool . Is there anyone else that would buy something like that lol.

[Turbinepowered]

Obviously there is, if folks are selling them... 

[catlin_cava]

You have to admit thou, it is a nice shift knob lol

[Op-Ivy]

Original looks best IMO

Looks nice but cold in the winter.  When I bought my first Golf, it had a custom machined aluminum knob, and it was no fun grabbing it the first thing on a cold winter morning.

I;ve always had a metal shift knob. I just let my car run a few minutes longer in the morning, plus I wear gloves when i first drive since its -30 here in the winter

That is sexy lol I'm use to the wal mart 12$ shifter my gf got me for my first golf lol. I usually cut the shifter rod down about 2 inches lol.

This made me laugh, I have never had this problem, but when I had my R32 the shift knob would get so hot in the summer that I could barely touch it. That's saying something too because I was working as a chef at the time and I could tolerate some heat.

GFs/wives are very missunderstanding people. My wife just can't understand why all the money MUST be spent on my Caddy. She also couldn't understand why anyone would spend weeks refinishing a 28-year-old Jaguar wooden wheel to put in a Volkswagen.
Don't try to explain, just install the sticker that I did.

there just as bad as us and have no room to talk as they would go out and buy an expensive handbag just to hold there make-up and stuff...

i`m lucky i`m single and can do what i want when i want lol

My wife is very understanding, accommodating and encouraging, even appreciative of my mechanical abilities.   I guess I married the right one.   

SNAP  and my one likes old cars/trucks to
it you have a prob with your GF get one of those shifter knob that you can take in to your house that vibrates ,least both of you can have fun with it  and if that dont work get your self a BF

To put this straight, I never once said I married the "wrong" one. I've been married almost 40 years and I'd do it all again with the same woman. In fact, if I had one that loved cars, I'd be very suspicious.
