Isn't this a 6 speed?

The ad lists this car as a "5-SPEED MANUAL!" (not sure why that gets an exclamation point - must mean that it was written by either a female or a used car salesman).

 

This picture sure looks like a six speed:

Am I missing something or is the ad copy wrong?

Chariots of Palm Beach is a Morgan and Rolls Royce dealership primarily. They would not know how to count that high with gears! :jester:

Seriously, I have found them very good to deal with and would happily deal with them again. I have had reason to use them 5 times in the past.

 

My old yellow SV was found at CofPB after it had sat there for 12 months. I found them very willing to move down a long way on price in negotiation when a car has been in stock for a while. This R300 has been there at least 8 months so it may be an opportunity to serious haggle.

Some people just put knobs on to make it look cool, ...hey look a 6 speed.

 

 

Or.....The kits we built all included a single knob from Caterham exactly like that. I installed a 5 speed. If I truly cared... I could have bought a new knob. I did not care.

This is a nice build - very tidy - I like it. I'm guessing Caterham USA put this together, so maybe it is a six speed after all. I thought the R300 had a 6 speed as standard equipment.
