i think it depends on the car, the meggane coupe's look nice in yellow too, and the Scooby WRX in yellow

My mates has serious trouble getting into reverse, its had a new clutch and fluid, but its still a bitch to get in, he has to turn the engine off then put it in  i suggested a slave cylinder, so he went to BMW and got one and had a word with one of the mechanics and they said the best thing to do was buy a new slave cylinder and get it machined longer

I havent driven one personally, but my dad has and i was with him, its jerky, un-natural and sort of pointless. I have no idea on reliability i just went for a test drive in an e36 m3 smg back in like 1999 or whenever the box was released, salesman was apologising saying he couldnt get us a "proper" gearbox one to try lol.
You may love it, drive it and see, i wouldnt touch it with cosmo's though tbh
