Red face Having trouble picking a Z.. and having trouble with the manual

Hello all im back with more noobish questions so you can all get mad and say ugh what a noob or hey man not to be rude but theres like a bagilion post on this already so ( not that a forum Is for posting and helping ) anyway....

Heres my first problem Im looking into a new Nismo vs a GT and I cant decide becuase from what I here the Nismo is very stiff and not an enjoyable everyday car and that the nismo exhaust on the vehicle doesnt provide any extra RWHP or sound increase, On the other hand If im going to pay for a Z I dont really want the GT for the simple reason that there less rare and just dont look as sweet. ( please do not reply to this thread saying well sir if you want a more rare car you can buy a caymen s or some other vehicle, I dont want another vehicle I want a Z )

My second problem is that I have been dreaming of a Manual Z I love how it feels and controls but when I test drove one I found my self driving like a newbie shifter, I was over reving to go from a stand still to just cruising like say im going into second and i push the clutch then I found myself giving it to much throttel before I let of the clutch and it was just a mess also sometimes when I would press the clutch in the rpms would start going up and my foot wouldnt even be on the gas??? until i let the clutch out it would just keep goin higher scared me a bit.

Third problem, will someone willing tell me how they drive there manual Z like how many rpms do u use while holding the clutch to go from N to 1st to get moving and If I wana take it to the track where and when should I shift do I slam the gas down through all gears and just shift as fast as possible at redline?

~Thanks for reading~
