The gearchange on my US car is fine, has a relatively short throw and the clutch is reasonably light (I mean it's heavier than a civic, but postively pleasurable compared to a Mustang).

And what's all this about Corvettes being compared to TVRs and 911s? A TVR costs about 35-40k (UK Pounds) a Corvette is like $37k, or the price of a V6 Mondeo/Vectra at the current exchange rate!!

If you start comparing cars on a price bracket basis, nothing touches the Corvette*
