You had a question, I agree with you that. But your next post shows your true intention for the thread saying how you think it's ridiculous other people spent their money which prompted my response.

However, this question makes my blood boil (you know in the I am bored and want to argue on the internet sort of way). I don't know how much money you make or how much any person with a TK knob makes, but suffice it to say that at this point in life I make enough money to own a dozen TK knobs if it suited me (as I am sure many other people here could).

The assumption that the OP questioning the TK knob is some form of jealousy is absurd.

The original post, as I read it, was asking whether or not there was a reason, other than the exclusivity, or name recognition, that the TK knob is so highly sought after. I'd say most, if not all of us can agree that there are other knobs (including the fatboy TK knock-off knob) that will get you what you need in terms of a good shift knob, and save you some $$$. However, if you want TK, gotta be hellaJDM or whatever, then go for it; pay the premium.

I have and will continue to spend money on my car(s) in ways that won't make sense to any body but me. That is the beauty of modding cars.

It's absurd to post your opinion in a thread before reading through all the posts.

And I'm really glad to hear you will continue to spend your money on your car(s) in a way that won't make sense to any body but you. Maybe OP can learn from your wise wisdom and stop thinking how ridiculous it is someone else spends his or her money on an expensive sex toy.

They're like $400 now, or I just sold one of the last few for $400+shipping a few hours ago
