Best C5 shifter
I just received my Hurst yesterday. With the different springs that come with it you have a lot of options to fit your taste. I've heard plenty of good things on the Hurst so I went with it.

I'm using the B&M ripper shifter...it's been in the car almost three years now and I'm happy with it. It's a bit notchy, but the shifts are very precise. I haven't tried any other after market shifter to compare it with.
I have the B&M Ripper it is really stiff but I is a really good race shifter. Daily driving on it though can be a little aggrevating especially using 5, 6, and Reverse. When its time to get on it though you won't have any regrets.

I personally don't like the taller stick of the Hurst. Then I tried the Kirban...really nice but I want more notchiness so I went with the B&M. I love it. Short throw, notchy, great feedback, precise shifts....really nice!!

I just bought a BPP shifter for the Z06. Have ot had a chance to put it in yet, way too cold. Although I have read up on it and many people are very happy with it. I like it because of the adjustments of the position of the handle.
