You might want to look at that tranny then if you cant feel the shifts.
Soft shifts mean slipping which means wearing out the tranny. They
should be somewhat firm but not neck breaking firm.

Hi Rick -
Ditto what the others said - Ilike mine so much I may find another
someday -- my wife drives this one all the time.
Try to find the best one possible - naturally - mine had 100k when I bought
it and I still had to do some tweaking. But the nicer the better -
My engine starts instantly and since putting Mobil Synthetic ATF in the
tranny it shifts so smoothly I can barely feel it shift! I'm amazed every
time I drive it!
I timed it last night and saw 0-60 in 13-14 sec. so it seems things ate
right.
Toss up between a W124 and a 86/87 SDL. But since the W124 is a known
entity I'm tempted to go with that --
Good Luck -
