Ok, I figured out something I don't like about her car. It was what is called "Hill Start Assist." it basically holds the brakes on for about a second after you release them so you don't roll backwards. My issue with this is that I actually no how to drive a stick. All it does to me is cause me to stall the engine, because I'm releasing the clutch before the brakes release. I did it 5 times today. Once at a red light and to a$$ hat 2 cars back decided to pound on his gas and drive the car behind us into the back of us. Then they both took of without stopping. Luckily there was no damage, not even a scratch. Had me pretty irate for a good while after. Had it been the Camaro, I would have chased them down and snapped out, mostly for not stopping.
