Default 2002 SS M6 Tranny Feel Gunky:

I'm looking at purchasing a 100k mile 02 SS for kicks.

The car is in pretty good shape for the age and miles, but my question is on the shifter.

It moves in and out of gear very nicely, but when it's in neutral, moving the stick back and fourth feels really thick. Almost sticky.

It's hard to explain. Clutch is great, grabs gears nicely, no other complaints.

Any ideas what's causing it, or how to fix it?

Maybe something in the shifter itself is sticking?

May be just the way it is too. The are a somewhat stiff as they go into each of the gears.
