If I could use it in the traffic we have here, I probably would, but it's so stop and go (like 5mph to 40mph back to 5mph) that it's useless to idle through.
It's not if you know how to drive manual or not, some cars just can't do it. I tried in my 93 civic and it didn't work lool, the Z works no problem though as well as my 94 integra.
