I'm sure many of us this forum, learned how to drive a manual trans car when we finally purchased one. I know I did, drove a 4 on the floor Toyota Corona back in the day. Yes, I'm sure you have no idea what that car is (LOL), as I'm an older fella.
You're correct, a manual Z is not that hard to drive as the torque in the car doesn't require you to be spot on pressing the gas. It's actually pretty hard to stall this car and even starting up hills isn't that bad. To make it a little easier, get the clutch helper spring as an early mod, it's only $20 on here and it gives you a better feel for the clutch. Don't think you can go wrong either way getting an auto or mt. However I say get the mt to get that out of your system. Otherwise you'll always have that little voice in the back of your head saying, I wonder what the manual would feel like. Good luck on your decision and welcome to the club! |

Thanks for the advice, and the welcome! I'll definitely take a look at the clutch helper spring if the intense Atlanta traffic is too bad for me.
I do feel that I need to get that manual transmission voice out of my head. Thanks to everyone who has taken the time to contribute to this thread, wish I could quote you all. ![]() |
