I installed the hurst a few days ago and was surprised at how ugly the white ball was.... I thought it would look cool.
Im willing to buy a black one, maybe even a angled stick, but after a few days ive started to like the white ball... and people who look into my car can't help but notice the hurst shifter standing out... i might keep it.
and hey, i save $30+ that way

Think I'm ordering my hurst tomorrow, my factory trans lasted 90 days and 3500 miles, and I'd like to think a tighter shifter would have prevented that. Yeah, the next trans prolly won't be warranty (this one was, luckily) so I'd rather spend $250 now (installed) than ten times that on a trans down the road.

BLASPHEMY!
Saying that about the Hurst to a motorhead is like saying something bad about baseball, apple pie, and hotdogs AND ****
To each his own I reckon.

I love my Hurst shifter. Classic Muscle car look. The white ball and chrome handle looks awesome. As posted before it should've come stock with the GT . To each his own, but you should know what you are ordering before you buy it.

+1 on hating the white ball in the s197, it just looks totaly out of place. [:'(]
Every option I have seen mentioned in here all look like ***, the t-handle looks just as bad as the white ball..
This is whyI prolly won't change my shifter.
JMO anyways. [8D]

IMO the Hurst shifter should have been installed as original equipment on the Mustang. I would imagine the people that don't like the white shifter **** are of a younger generation and don't relate the classic look to the retro styling of our Stangs.
Hurst shifter with white ****= muscle car to me.

But, I have never really been a huge fan of the white ball either.
I always thought it was just OK, but IMO in the s197 it just looks totaly out of place and ugly as hell.
