i dont wanna buy a crappy car just to learn manual in
that would be good to learn in, once you learn in that you will be able to drive any manual......the less torque you have the more clutch control you have to have.....and the more you have the easier...and if you have enough with a low enough first gear you can slip the clutch out without ever hitting the gas and it wont stall lol

Thanks for pricing it out of my reach, GM.
ummm the total price increase on a 2SS is $330

No, my car is sex on wheels.

You just don't see when people are trying to help you out. All you see is criticism... It's time to grow up a little bit brother.

and rest your foot on the clutch always completely take your foot off and to the side
