Default 2016 Polaris White 6 Speed

Just got mine from my dealer!

I have to say this car is fun to drive, however it could use a short shifter. The popping isn't as much as the AT 8speed but can be replicated by tappingthe throttle every now and again.

Wow, awesome.
Pretty close to my beast, except I went for a tamer cirrus interior.
More pics please....

As opposed to my 2016 R, your armrest is longer and contoured and there's no cover for the cup holder. Is this a feature of the 6MT option?

Yep, it is.

Car looks awesome.
Did they give you the shipping cover, or do they send those back to JLR?

I like that design better.


This is the first time I've not had a manual transmission in 22 years. Still trying to get used to having all that extra time on my hands.

awesome, enjoy, definitely like the cup holders and center console design better. I also have red zone plus extended leather but my armrest and cup holders are also black and only the passenger handle bar is red ...
