Default Where can I get this shift ****? GT3 shifter?

Does anyone know where i can get the below shift ****. I believe it is a 996 GT3 Shifter? Looks like the stock shifter but real aluminum, not plastic... and no alum horseshoe!

Thanks, Ross

Ross - there are a few on ebay and the link below is for one that looks similar to the pic you posted. I'm not sure if it is what you are looking for though.

Check the Carnewal site. Here's one example, although not smooth leather:

Shifter

Andreas - I saw that one, thats the closest I could find. Dell - do you have the smooth leather shifter in your GT3?

If I cant find it, may get the RUF shifter.... very similar, save the RUF logo

Ross,
Send an email to Gert at Carnewal, along with the pic you posted here. I'm sure he can get it.

Ross, Good choice. Thats what came with my car.. and I love the feel, specially when shifting fast. I've used different kinds and its my choice better than any other kind (IMHO). specially the TT kind its just feel too bulky.

To be quite honest, I didn't even look at the "seller" info. He just asked where he could get one so I did a search.

If it's like the RS shifter, that's not aluminum. It's plastic.


Quick Reply: Where can I get this shift knob? GT3 shifter?
