I prefer to do my own rev-matching / heel-toe, even thought it's far from perfect, so no need for Chrono.
The sales guy just told me that doing a performance center delivery adds another 4-5 weeks for delivery. Is this correct? He also wants $3k non-refundable deposit because the build is so unique... sounds like BS to me?

Be sure to sit in the 2-way seats before finalizing the order. The big advantage of the 14 and 18 way seats is 4-way lumbar support - crucial if you are above or below average height.
The hill-holder works great for starting on inclines. The main issue with stop and go traffic on an incline is that you have to apply a bit more throttle on start-up, which launches you forward, whereupon you have to put the clutch in again as traffic grinds to a halt. I tend to let a gap develop and then try and creep in first gear with as little throttle as possible, and curse the bloke in front of me braking for no reason (cell phone) and forcing me to put the clutch back in.

After trying Rev-Match and realizing that I couldn’t heel/toe perfectly every shift, it made sense to let the computer make all perfect down shifts for me and let me concentrate on the corner.
