See what you're saying about the notchy transmission, but let's be honest, if going for a better daily driver means switching to and STI; then i'm not sure if it will be THAT much of an improvement.
Yeah... STi's that I've driven have all felt kinda notchy, too.
I've only driven Shanna's about a year ago and I remember the transmission and clutch being loads better than the evo's. Part of the want to switch is just to get something with lower miles too. One of my problems is I don't like any new cars enough to make the switch to anything after 06 or so.
We'll see what I'm feeling like once it warms up a little. I may just get something else and retire the evo from DD duties.
Edit: As a side note, when I had the clutch put in, I had the guy take the transmission apart and check it out. He said everything looks brand new including the synchros, so I'm pretty sure the notchiness is just how its going to be.
