My S2 has a shortened gearstick and also the round knob on it.
Pros, very fast chances and short throw is nice to use. Round knob far nicer to the touch.
Cons, leverage is significantly reduced, this is okay for 1-6 but reverse is a real push. My wife is unable to get past the spring detent into reverse due to the pressure needed and a finger wound. She does not feel comfortable driving the car now in case she gets stuck. Make certain you can do it comfortably. Once they cut the stick down you are done !
I would love parking sensors on the front. The rear is okay as I am tall enough to see the rear boot beak. The front scares me. I have a line of soft cushions in the garage to protect it.
