Are you coming to VIR? It's about twice the price of the Rob ****, but SO much more worth it.

Default I have one in my car and like it....also have one in stock if youd like to just try it out....

the weight of the **** does make the throw feel more solid. They are a bit pricey, but IIRC the brushed aluminum is no more expensive than an alcantara ****, which i had for a while. Although nice, the alcantara wore out over time, something that wont happen on the rob ****.
